Using the right equipment

Lighting equipment

Auckland City Council has/is developed(ing) a standard range of equipment within the CBD parks and reserves. Selection of equipment should to be made from this range, where possible, in order to minimise the number of different types of equipment in use, and to give ease of replacement and maintenance. Selection outside of this range is not recommended and should only be considered after informed decisions and due process.
