A site has been chosen for a new skatepark in Tairua.
The Thames-Coromandel District Council has chosen Cory Park Domain for the facility.
The council said all potential sites were investigated and public opinion was thoroughly canvassed.
It said a community skatepark design reference group would be formed with a mix of members including skaters, adjacent residents, a member of the Preserve Cory Park Domain Society, a member of the Tairua Recreation Sports Trust, a member of the Tairua Rugby Sports Club and others including police and other park users to ensure the skatepark design was compatible with other recreational uses of the park.
