Council seeking feedback on 10 year plan
More housing, protecting the environment, more spending on infrastructure or a new Olympic pool in Naenae.
The council is surveying residents to find out what they think council’s priorities should be for the next decade.
Lower Hutt Mayor Campbell Barry says his priority over the next ten years is to get the basics right and increase investment in core infrastructure.
"For me as mayor, investing in basic infrastructure is a key priority for our ten year plan. It’s about ensuring our city has high quality infrastructure that supports people to move around, protect our basic services like water, and enjoy our community facilities like pools and libraries," Campbell Barry said.
Tell us what you would like to see the council do over the next ten years.
