Hello Cr Tegg,
I am a resident of Paeroa and keenly concerned about climate change and the impacts of climate and sea level rise on the Hauraki Plains. You mentioned a while back that Hauraki DC has produced a set of policies and actions for climate change. I’ve tried to get a copy from them but so far without success. I would be very grateful, if you have an electronic version, to have you forward a copy to me.
Kind regards
Mairi Jay 55 Station Road, Paeroa 3600 Ph: 07-280-2699
