Topic: Tihi Rd reserve

Enquiry

I recall a mention in an agenda a while ago about a study on some bats at the Tihi Rd reserve - again is there a report or something I could see?

Response

The following information was provided:

We have checked with the teams involved and they have advised that following the discovery of native long-tailed bats using Sanatorium reserve, ecological reports are now routine at other sites to investigate potential roosting locations.

Council's Open Spaces team are planning tree maintenance for Tihi Road reserve so the team engaged Wildland Consultants to investigate the area. We understand from their monitoring that they found no signs of bats.
