Cultural well-being strategies and policies

This LTCCP contains the community outcomes adopted by all four councils in our region and how they were identified. It also shows how we will contribute to the achievement of those outcomes over the next 10 years. It sets out the ways in which we, Environment Southland, plan to work with the community, stakeholders, and other agencies to achieve the vision of Southland as having a world class environment and being a great place to live.

Our 2006-2016 Long-Term Council Community Plan:

• identifies the desired community outcomes for the Waikato region
• details the activities we will undertake over the next three financial years as our contribution to the community outcomes
• outlines our work programmes for the next ten years, how much the work will cost and how it will be funded.

Essentially Waiheke is a strategy to manage residential development that will occur as a result of population growth on Waiheke Island over the next 50 years.

Written as a guide for policy makers in the Public Service this document  provides an approach to policy and service delivery that is responsive to New Zealand’s increasing ethnic diversity.

The Plan proposes a strategic direction to help guide the Far North District Council in its support and use of available capital funds in the development recreation facilities over the next ten years and beyond.

Council is preparing an "Open Space and Coastal Access Strategy", which will be a long-term plan (10 years +) setting out what the aims and priorities are for reserves and other open spaces.

After undertaking consultation with the districts communities in March and April this year Council has prepared draft recreation plans that cover the Northern, Western and Eastern wards.

This policy details how Council will encourage the use and development of recreational assets and funding sources.

This plan is probably the most important document the Council produces, as it sets out key aims, objectives and priorities for the Far North, as the Council sees them, for the next ten years.

This report details the major components of the "District Outcomes Project" consultation.
