Greening the East Development Plan
Christchurch City Council

“Wendy was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire project to produce a Development Plan for improving the quality and quantity of green spaces in an inner city neighbourhood.

We had a wide variety of stakeholders - her ability to listen to and understand different perspectives was commendable and shows in what she delivered.

Those involved were impressed with the outcome and it was a delight to read the completed project. It proved she not only ‘got it’ but enhanced the result by achieving multiple objectives.”
