Welcome | Nau Mai

The draft Long Term Plan provides a roadmap for the projects and services we intend to deliver over the next 10 years. It lets you know what we’ll be doing, how much it will cost and how we intend to pay for it.

We want to find a balance between affordability, providing essential infrastructure, and delivering exciting projects that make our district a great place to live.

We face some tough choices and we can’t afford to take on everything. This draft proposes a 9.9% average increase in rates for 2024/25, but this will vary depending on where you live, so check below for your area.

Your feedback will help us know what to prioritise. We’ve highlighted five key decisions that we think are important, but we encourage you to provide feedback on any part of the plan. We look forward to hearing from you.
