Green light for $27m Naval Point plan
Closure of
Magazine Bay
marina
on cards
A $27 million plan to redevelop
Lyttelton’s Naval Point has been
given the goahead by the Banks
Peninsula Community Board.
The Naval Point Development
Plan, which was developed in
partnership with Te Hapū o
Ngāti Wheke (Rāpaki) Rūnanga,
includes an
expanded public
boat ramp,
reorganised
waterfront and
new breakwater.
The board
Tori Peden
also has
requested city
council staff start working on a
leasing plan for all Naval Point
users and recommended the city
council approve the closure of
the Magazine Bay marina, once
existing licences expire or are
terminated according to their
licence terms and conditions.
This will go to a future council
meeting, with the date still to be
set.

significant step forward in
improving the area for the many
users of Naval Point and the
wider public.
“There has been high interest
from the community for a
number of years, wanting to see
Naval Point developed to better

suit the needs of its recreational
users and for it to be more
accessible to the public,” she
said.
“We recognise that it will
take time for the plan’s vision
to be fully achieved but
approval of the plan means that
stakeholders, such as Canterbury
Coastguard and Lyttelton
Rugby, can pursue funding
opportunities for their projects
on the site.
“While the board has
approved this concept plan
for the site, we recognise
there will be ongoing work with
users and key stakeholders to
firm up the detailed designs
needed for future phases
of the development work –
especially elements such as the
breakwater.”
The implementation of the
plan will take place in stages
over several years as funding

Priority will be given to
providing key marine access
structures, such as the public
ramp and breakwater, and initial
site access improvements and
each stage will require detailed
design and more engagement
with users.
An operational plan for
the site will be produced by
staff in conjunction with the
development work.
