We are nearly there!

Online Content Publisher from Whangarei District Council

In March we will be sharing our plan with you, you can read what’s been proposed in our Long term Plan consultation document and take a look at the detail that supports it.
Formal consultation starts on 7 March and closes 8 April 2018.

To help us develop this plan we started talking to you about it last year. It gave us a clear idea of the issues that are important to you, and we call these 'Key Issues'.
They include:
* Continuing focus on core assets
* Getting set-up for the future
* Keeping our place nice and making it even better to live here.

Our Public Meetings are being held to provide you with information and hear your comments and any concerns about the plan.
We encourage you to tell us what you think your rates money should be spent on.
Come along to find out more and help to make Whangarei an even better place to live.

A list of our public meetings can be found on our facebook page

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
