Petrie Park BBQ and Consultation 2025

Feb 24, 2025 | Active Richmond, Educate Richmond, Healthy Richmond, Heritage Richmond, RR&BA

We hosted a wonderful community BBQ at Petrie Park and thank everyone for coming out. We met some new residents, existing neighbours and lots of happy dogs.
Christchurch City Council‘s consultation team was there to show off the new planting plan we have created in conjunction with the Urban Forest Team.
Be sure to give feedback on the new Petrie Park plan before 10 March (tell your neighbours too):
We also enjoyed seeing all of the murals we’ve worked alongside the community to create in the last year mounted along the perimeter walls…they look fantastic mounted on the walls around the park. Bridget Allen Environmental Art has done so well planning these and our landscape layout.
Thank you to Peter Timbs Meats for sponsoring sausages and dog treats, Lena from Redzone Dogs Ōtautahi for coming along to support, Emma Nourish from our local community board, and Ali Jones Council Candidate For Innes for supporting.
