Have your say on the Annual Budget
Every year we prepare an Annual Budget (called an annual plan) that sets out what we plan to do in the current financial year and how this impacts on your rates and Council’s debt. Our Annual Budgets are based on our 10 Year Plan which sets out what Council will do for residents over a ten-year period.
The 10 Year Plan is designed to bring our vision and goals to life, and covers the services we provide, upkeep of the city’s infrastructure, and new projects that’ll make our city an even better place to live. We’re now preparing our Annual Budget for 2019/20 and want to hear your thoughts. It’ll be based on year 2 of the 10 Year Plan for 2018-28.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
