Light Square/Wauwi is envisioned as a vibrant green oasis in the city’s north-west.

During consultation to develop the draft Master Plan we asked what would make Light Square/Wauwi a great green space. The most popular responses were for a space that:

• is comfortable to use throughout the seasons
• has big trees
• plants for birds and butterflies
• provides quiet spots for relaxing.

The importance placed on greening from people who participated in consultation helped shape one of the three themes of the draft Master Plan – which are to create a Greener, Safer and Inclusive public space.

Options

The draft Master Plan has two options that both propose to increase green space.

*Note that the draft Master Plan is a concept and its implementation is unfunded and subject to future annual business plan and budget processes.
