Draft Heritage Policy | Taonga Tuku Iho
Thank you for your enthusiastic and constructive feedback at the open days and online during the latest round of engagement on our draft Heritage Policy - Taonga Tuku Iho.
The draft policy was revised, in light of your feedback, and is now available via the link to your right.
Next Steps
Council’s Policy, Finance and Strategy Committee considered the revised draft Heritage Policy on 23 February. It agreed to a final formal consultation during March and early April. This consultation consists of:
- Mana whenua reviewing the revised draft in particular section 5
- Direct contact with submitters who provided written feedback so they can consider any further suggestions and/or concerns and discuss these with council
- Electronic and hard copies are available through our community hubs, facilities, and on our Council website.
The draft Heritage Policy - Taonga Tuku Iho outlines Hutt City Council’s role in managing our city’s unique heritage, stories and culture. It covers how we will work with our communities to achieve their aspirations regarding heritage. Mana whenua is partnering with council so we accurately reflect the history and heritage of our community.
Council recognises that a city, where everyone has opportunities to thrive, is a city where all our communities’ heritage stories are valued, protected and celebrated.
