This committee allows Ngāti Pāoa Iwi Trust and the Maungakiekie-Tāmaki Local Board to manage the Ōmaru Recreational Reserve.
Ōmaru Recreational Reserve
Ōmaru is the traditional name for the area covering the Point England (Kaino) Reserve.
As part of the treaty settlement under the Ngāti Pāoa Claims Settlement Bill:

The public can continue to use the reserve.
