Rangitikei District Council is currently developing Management Plans for its parks and reserves. It is working on the Plans in two parts: the first is a District-wide component which will apply to all parks and reserves and the second will be specific to the particular park or reserve being considered. The procedure is that Council prepares and adopts a draft Plan which is then subject to a period of public consultation (two months in the case of reserves). Council has just finished the public consultation period for the following Management Plans:

• Draft Recreational Parks and Reserves Management Plan (Part 1)
• Draft Historic Reserves Management Plan (Part 1)
• Draft Memorial Park Management Plan (Part 2)
• Draft Bulls Old Courthouse and Gaol Reserve Management Plan (Part 2)
