Council seeks feedback on Spa Thermal Park

24 July 2015

Taupo District Council is seeking feedback on whether to allow an operator to occupy an area of the Spa Thermal Park car park.

It is proposed to allow a food and drink cart occupy about two car parks near the recently installed power supply unit at Spa Thermal Park. However, this would mean a change to the Spa Thermal Park and Riverbank Recreational and Scenic Reserve Management Plan would need to be made.

If the reserve management plan is amended, the council is likely to grant a licence for the food and drink cart to operate out of the area for up to five years.

You can view an aerial map of the proposed location and make a submission online at www.taupo.govt.nz/consultation or pick up a hard copy from one of our offices.

Submissions close on August 24 at 5pm.
