Long Term Plan 2018-2028

Tararua District Mayor, Tracey Collis, says it was extremely pleasing to have a united council and a unanimous adoption of the Tararua District’s Long Term Plan.

Council's Chief Executive Blair King acknowledged the clean audit clearance and final management reports by Audit NZ. These reflect the robust working relationship and transparency with Audit NZ staff, and the excellent project management approach used.

Long Term Plan 2015-2025

Council has reaffirmed the focus on core infrastructure, economic development and financial prudence, as well as responding to challenges and opportunities for the Tararua District.

This Long Term Plan is the first to be completed under the recent amendments to the Local Government Act. A new Consultation Document was the focus of the consultation process. This contained the options for key decisions that Council wanted to have community feedback on. The process resulted in 224 submissions, a substantial increase from the process for the Long Term Plan 2012-2022.

Many positive developments are happening in the community and business sectors, and the district is more positive than it has been for many years. The challenges will continue of course; our infrastructure networks are constantly being required to meet higher environmental standards, and internal processes need to comply with more auditing and compliance requirements.
