Reserve Management Plans - Pohutukawa Reserve - Mahia Peninsula Reserve Management Plans - Pohutukawa Reserve - Mahia Peninsula

The Reserves Act 1977 requires the council to prepare reserve management plans for nearly all parks classified as 'reserves' under council control.

Reserve management plans outline the Council's general intentions for the use, development, maintenance, protection and preservation of its reserves through a series of objectives and policies.

The Pohutukawa Reserve is located at Mahia Beach on the north-western edge of the Mahia Peninsula. It comprises a linear esplanade reserve stretching from the corner of Moana Drive near the camping ground south to the southern reserve known as ‘the Mokotahi Landing’ at the base of Mokotahi headland. The Reserve lies within the residential zone of Mahia Beach settlement and forms the coastal fringe between the settlement and the Mahia beach itself.
