Community services projects

Tauranga is growing, and our current aquatic facilities are struggling to keep up. To meet the needs of our community now and in the future, we’re planning a new aquatic facility at Memorial Park.

The spaces available at the Mercury Baypark site in Te Maunga, Mount Maunganui, have the potential to be optimised and repurposed to cater to the city's growing population and increasing need for space to play sports and hold recreational activities and events.

We’re establishing Hubs where you can pitch in to help your neighbours in an emergency.

A new city centre laneway will connect Grey Street and Durham Street.

We’re building a community centre to create a safe, welcoming and flexible space for the communities of Gate Pā.

We’re implementing a pilot project to help reduce pressure on pipes, resulting in fewer water main breaks and leaks in the future. 

We’re redeveloping the Merivale Community Centre to create a safe, welcoming and flexible space for the communities of Merivale.

Tauranga City Council is looking at the future use of the Crown-owned Tauranga Racecourse Reserve in Greerton.
