The parliamentary petition is going well, with 3,665 signatures so far from people who do not want to see Pegasus Golf Course go on the fast-track list for redevelopment.

If you haven't done it already, add your signature here: https://petitions.parliament.nz/30f8ba29-6403-4f8f-296c-08deba37d516?lang=en

Why? Because this community does not agree that deep pockets should override community protections.

Pegasus was designed as a master planned community focused on open space, recreation, environmental values, and coordinated development. The golf course was central to that vision.

Residents have been clear in their concern that if the proposal to redevelop the Pegasus Golf Course were to be fast tracked, redevelopment could bypass safeguards, limit community input, and strain North Canterbury’s infrastructure.

We think proposals of this scale should go through a full, transparent public process.

The more signatures we collect, the louder the voice of the community is.

Waimakariri District Council has agreed on a 4.99% average rates increase as part of its Annual Plan. See below for more details.

Waimakariri District Council has agreed on a 4.99% average rates increase as part of its Annual Plan — one of the lowest in Canterbury!

Importantly, that figure includes Three Waters costs.

Excluding Three Waters, the average general rates increase for most households is around 2.9%.

Council carefully reviewed spending, deferred non-urgent projects where appropriate, and focused on balancing affordability while continuing to invest in essential infrastructure, safety, and growth for our district.

Thank you to everyone who took part in the consultation process and shared feedback!
