NPDC 10 Year Plan : 15th February 9.30am NPDC Debating Chamber

Stephanie from Spotswood

Our Council is about to undertake one of the most important tasks of its
three-year term. This is the review of
the long-term Ten Year Plan for its
future.
Late last year staff and consultants
contacted more than 5,500 people in
the community assessing the issues
that people felt were important for
the future. The result is a comprehensive report which will now be

reviewed by the elected council with
an opportunity for members of the
public to make further submissions.
The main issues to be considered are
what sort of developments need to
proceed, the cost, and the impact on
rates or borrowing.
New Plymouth Positive
Ageing, Grey Power and Age Concern Taranaki have invited Mayor
Neil Holdom to address a free forum
in the Council Debating Chamber.
This will be held in the NPDC Debating Chamber on Thursday 15th February, 9.30am to 11.00am
