Communications from Hastings District Council

Today (Tuesday 14 May), we have the second of our public drop-in sessions for the draft Long Term Plan 2024/2034. This will be held in the Hastings District Council chambers foyer (207 Lyndon Road East, Hastings) between 5pm-7pm. Come and discuss the draft plan with councillors and Hastings District Council staff.

Further public drop-in sessions will be held this week at:
> Clive Community Hall, Wednesday 15 May, 5pm-7pm
> Mackersey Family Pavilion, Havelock North Domain, Thursday 16 May, 5pm-7pm

If you live rurally, or can't come in person, join us for a Facebook Live session on Tuesday 21 May from 5pm-5:30pm - right here on the Hastings District Council Facebook page.

This is a strongly infrastructure-focused budget that proposes a 25 per cent rate increase for the 2024/25 year, eight per cent of which is targeted for the recovery from Cyclone Gabrielle, and 17 per cent to predominantly provide funding for building and maintaining sustainable infrastructure and servicing debt.

Tell us what you think at www.myvoicemychoice.co.nz... or return the reply-paid form with your consultation document before 5pm, Monday 27 May.

Worst Xmas ever?

Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...
