What matters most?
Kia ora, as part of the development of the Long-term Plan 2021—41 we want to know what matters most to you.
This weeks question is: What matters most as we experience growth across the district?
We will see higher demand across all Council services from an expanding population, and these services must be planned for with extra capacity. The continued growth in key demographics like older persons and young families also have implications for the types of infrastructure and services we will need to plan for in the future.
How do we plan ahead for growth, and the challenges and opportunities that it brings, ensuring Kāpiti continues to be a great place to live. Tell us what matters most to you.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
