If you are a resident of Auckland, you have an opportunity to express your opinion on the ‘Auckland Plan’ currently under discussion.
Puketapapa (Mt Roskill) Community Board Member Ella Kumar said that the ‘Auckland Plan’ is a bold 30-year strategy, envisioned to make Auckland the ‘World’s Most Liveable City.’
“This is the first of its type in New Zealand. All Local Boards in Auckland are in discussion with the communities to determine the direction that the City should take to integrate social, economic, environmental, and cultural objectives.
“These include the existing and future land use pattern (residential, business, rural production and industrial) and critical infrastructure (transport, water supply, wastewater and storm water, other network utilities, open space and cultural & social Needs),” she said.
Ms Kumar said all Aucklanders should comment on the Plan and that their opinions will be considered while drafting the strategy.
Comments should be sent on or before May 31, 2011 (4 pm) by Post to Freepost Authority 237170 (The Auckland Plan), The Auckland Council, Private Bag 92300, Auckland 1142.
