Long Term Plans
The Long Term Plan, or LTP for short, is a detailed planning document prepared every three years by Council. Within the LTP, we set out Council’s direction for all significant activities and outline a plan for the next 10 years. The plan will detail how we plan to pay for key projects, how we plan to manage all of our assets and infrastructure and how we intend to achieve our vision and community wellbeing.
How does the LTP affect me?
Essentially, whether you are a ratepayer or not, the LTP affects us all.
Whether it’s water supply, sewage treatment, rubbish and recycling, roads, footpaths, parks and reserves, the Library, building control or animal management – to name just a few, it’s about working together to achieve common ground and deliver on what’s best for the wider district and the communities that reside within.
