Henderson-Massey Local Board
Recreation and culture
From parks and libraries to museums and art galleries, councils can be a key supporter of sporting, recreational and cultural events that bring communities to life. Community facilities, including sports grounds and town halls, are often owned and run by councils.
Recreation and culture
From parks and libraries to museums and art galleries, councils can be a key supporter of sporting, recreational and cultural events that bring communities to life. Community facilities, including sports grounds and town halls, are often owned and run by councils.
The local Board's core function is the parks, pools, museums, libraries, and community halls including catering for community-owned halls.
Local boards are the enabler, not the doer, provide the sporting facilities and the community will run the festivals.
Continue to upgrade council facilities to meet the needs of the Henderson Massey Local Board area's rapid population growth.
Provide free access for seniors and children at West Wave Aquatic Centre.
Construct an all abilities playground in the Henderson Massey Local Board area for people with disabilities.
Resource our parks, libraries, and community centres.
Advocate for better sporting facilities that encourage healthy lifestyles.
Encourage a range of festive events and concerts that better connect and unite our diverse community.
Build a much needed swimming pool in Massey and allow the elderly and young children to visit it for free.
Introduce free WiFi at parks and bus stops for everyone, because being connected to our loved ones is important.
Build public toilets at various parks, which is much required in our area for our community to use.
Emphasise the value of open-air markets, community gardens and free outdoor events in bringing life to urban areas.
Ensure the safety and accessibility of our parks, reserves and waterways so that all people can benefit equally.
Provide free facilities and services for neighbourhoods experiencing high levels of social deprivation.
Continue advocating for a new pool in the Massey area. Our area has waited far too long for a new pool.
Advocate for the increase in park numbers and park facilities due to the intensification in the area.
Support/empower communities to run their own events. These events are crucial in building communities.
Fight for a new swimming pool complex in Northwest.
Advocate for the enlargement of The Pacifica Arts Centre, more community space for Pacifica groups and for a Pacific Business/Creative hub.
Prioritise the building of an all inclusive playground in West Auckland.
Increase the number of bus stops at Northwest, so that people can get to the library even if they have no car.
The Trusts, in my opinion do a good job in restricting the proliferation of Liquor licenses.
Support a diverse range of events to bring us together as a community (cultural, musical, social, sporting).
Identify where we need more sports and recreational spaces, and make sure there are facilities that cater for many types of recreation.
More high-quality play spaces that are accessible, for all abilities and all ages, and that have water facilities, toilets and shade.
Ensure funding is available for the maintenance of all public facilities.
Ensure more competition available for the sale of alcohol out west.
Ensure funding is available for public events.
Protect our parks, libraries, community facilities and recreation facilities for use of all. Need another aquatic centre out west asap.
Grow the wonderful community development partnerships out west. Make our streets safer through good design and working with and valuing people.
Support our sport and recreation groups with good facilities. Recognise waka ama rowing as a valued sport in the west.
Continue to support and fund our creative sector.
Support upgrades at the Corban Estate Arts Centre.
Continue to support ethnic events like the annual Diwali festival, Chinese New Year and Korea Day celebrations at the Trust Stadium.
Advocate for funding of a new swimming pool in Massey.
