Sector 4 showing<br />

redevelopment, in particular, to retain the natural character and encourage more use. Since then<br />
the Moturua Stream walkway has been opened.<br />
Mokai Kainga Maori Centre has received <strong>Council</strong> approval for a licence for a community<br />
garden at Tanera Park subject to community feedback.<br />
