Oruku Landing Conference and Event Centre, Riverside Drive, Whangarei

We wanted to share with you the links for the Long Term Plan for both Whangarei District Council and Northland Regional Council


As you know the consultation process is finishing next week and both councils are wanting to hear what you think – what preferences you would like to endorse.


We obviously want to have the Oruku Landing Conference and Event Centre Project selected – Option 1


Could you please help us make this project for Northland a reality by getting involved and voting to make your voice heard?


Below are the various links to help you out – you just need to click the links and either PRINT out the document or click the ONLINE link and follow the prompts.


Could we ask your support to start with to select the WDC Facebook link to watch the short video and then submit a like AND a comment? It will take you less than a minute😊

Here are just a mere few of the benefits that the Oruku Landing Conference and Event Centre Project will bring – you may wish to reflect this in your comment, or choose your own response.

Central Government will pay $60,000,000 towards it – what a windfall to have almost 75% of it paid for by Central Government – NOT RATE PAYERS 😊

Hundreds of Jobs will be created

Training by the likes of NorthTec will result in recognised qualifications along with potential employment in the construction and operation of the Oruku Landing Conference and Event Centre and other developments

As a result we will be able to construct the 4 star 130 room hotel – without this event centre project the hotel wont be built ☹

Many local companies will be involved in the design and building of this Project over a number of years, pumping much needed investment into our local economy.

Increased visitor numbers into Whangarei for Conferences, Flat floor and auditorium style Events will be a certainty for sure, providing a much needed financial stimulus for Whangarei for the years to come.

This project vision and design has been created by our Northland consultants, community and hapu, for our Northland community and hapu

Thank you for your help in getting the Oruku Landing Conference and Event Centre Project as the PREFERRED PROJECT selected. Please share with your friends, colleagues, and whanau.
