Auckland Council is proposing to give greater protection to two historic places in the Mahurangi area.
The two sites are the former Wilsons Portland Cement Company dam on Sandspit Road and the Pūhoi township historic heritage area.
They are both included in Plan Change 81 to the Auckland Unitary Plan, which seeks to make them subject to the provisions of the Auckland Unitary Plan Historic Heritage Overlay.
Council says the protection of historic heritage from inappropriate subdivision, use and development is a matter of national importance.
Altogether, the plan change covers 11 sites across Auckland. Further submissions on the proposal close on January 20.
