The long-term plan (LTP) is the key planning tool for councils across New Zealand. It sets out the Council’s plans for the next 10 years – what projects we’re committing to complete and how they will be paid for.
These plans are shaped in consultation with our community and built around its priorities.
This is your opportunity to share your views with us on our Long-Term Plan. We want to hear what proposals you support, as well as things you think we could do differently. We also welcome your comments on other areas you think the Council should focus on, and other initiatives or projects you’d like us to support and how these might be funded. Your feedback will be considered as part of our decision-making on the Long-Term Plan.
Waikirikiri Selwyn is a district of opportunity where families thrive. We are a great place to bring up children and to grow old. All over Aotearoa people agree and move to Selwyn more often than to any other part of the country due to our great lifestyle, strong economy, and our fresh air location next to a city and touching the Southern Alps.
We’re focused on looking after what we already have while planning and investing in a few new projects that you have asked for.
We are balancing this with the cost of rates and the affordability for households. As we have seen with councils around the country, just providing what we did last year is costing more. There are a number of projects that we have had to delay and put off as they are unaffordable in the current environment.
When we were preparing this plan, you told us you wanted a sustainable Selwyn, a place where people could live without needing to go anywhere else and we want to deliver this.
We have developed this draft plan and we now want to hear from you.
