What is being proposed?

The Lake Tarawera Community Group Inc would like to operate the building as a community centre. Some of the community activities that the Tarawera Community Group Inc are proposing the building will be used for include:

• Yoga and Thai Chi
• Children's activities e.g. mainly music
• For use by community groups e.g. sailing club, civil defence, men's shed
• Mobile library service
• Community meetings

To enable the building to be used for these types of activities, the classification of the reserve needs to be changed under the Reserves Act 1977. Council is therefore proposing to change the classification of the reserve from Local Purpose (Playcentre) Reserve to Local Purpose (Community) Reserve.
