Forest & Bird Upper Hutt branch is trying to save the Silverstream Spur from being exchanged for land in Pinehaven, and used for residential development. This public owned land is the subject of a Land Exchange arrangement made in 2016 between UHCC and Guildford Timber Company Ltd to exchange the Silverstream Spur for a block of GTC land in Pinehaven, which is steep, to be used as a potential reserve. There was no public consultation at the time for this Memorandum of Understanding.
F&B UH wish the spur to be retained in public ownership and consider options to develop
the Spur for conservation, visual amenity and recreational purposes for the benefit of future generations.
If you are interested, please contact us on our on our email address.
