Draft Reserve Management Plans

Frimley Park

The Draft Frimley Park Reserve Management Plan was notified for public comment on Saturday 2 July 2022.

Public consultation has now closed.

Background

Frimley Park is 19.7808ha in size and located within the suburb of Frimley, Hastings.

The Park is primarily classified as a Recreation Reserve in terms of the Reserves Act 1977, with two smaller sections containing water infrastructure classified as Local Purpose (Network Utility). The Park is owned and managed by Hastings District Council.

The Park was gifted to the Hastings Borough Council in 1951 by Elsie Williams on behalf of her siblings, in memory of her parents James and Mary Williams.

The Park is in two parts: the land known as Frimley Park and a separate section on the corner of Pakowhai Road and Frimley Road.

The Park has an open spacious feeling with widely spaced trees allowing views through the Park. It contains a number of facilities and amenities including: rose gardens; sunken garden and memorial; playground; toilet block; sportsfields and changing block; and Frimley Aquatic Centre. A water treatment plant and reservoir have recently been constructed on the boundary with Hastings Girls High School. A path network connects access points at Frimley Road and Lyndhurst Road to the amenities within the Park. Parking is provided on the roads surrounding the Park with no vehicle access within the Park. Dogs are permitted on leash in the Park, except for around the playground.

Public consultation has now closed.

Next Steps

Later in the year, submissions on the draft plans will be presented to the councillors and mayor for consideration. Submitters will have the option of speaking on their submission to Council.

At the end of that process Council will deliberate on each of the plans and the submissions related to them and may request changes, after which the plans will be adopted.
