Proposed Unitary Plan Change 3: Viewshaft submissions close 7th September Please ask Auckland Council to Protect Stockade Hill views as nothing is certain yet. Proposed plan change 3 is a plan change that seeks to protect views of Rangitoto, Hauraki Gulf and the Islands from a public open space - Stockade Hill, Howick. The plan change proposes to delete an existing local public viewshaft that originates from the base of Stockade Hill and introduce a new viewshaft and a building height restriction area into the Local Public Views Overlay that originates from the top of Stockade Hill.
