Selwyn District Council will be releasing the Long Term Plan on 26 March 2024 so there can be community engagement and consultation during April (up to 2 May 2024) then the feedback will be considered by SDC (hearing as required) before the LTP is finalised (July 2024).

The long-term plan (LTP) is the key planning tool for councils across New Zealand. It sets out the Council’s plans for the next 10 years – what projects SDC will be committing to complete and how they will be paid for - see the Big Decisions (Four = 1: Safe drinking water - chlorination is an issue for some; 2: Public Transport; 3: Community Facilities, includes halls; 4: Whata Rau - Leeston ), with Community facilities on the community engagement / information section for feedback.
These plans are shaped in consultation with the community's in the District and built around their priorities.
The following are links to relevant material: SDC Research Report from October 2023 J3634-SDC-LTP-report_v3-002.pdf (selwyn.govt.nz) A summary has been distributed by the SDC SDC_This_Way_2031_A2_Fold_PRINT.pdf (selwyn.govt.nz)
The report provides information, albeit mainly from those who responded, to assist in the making of informed decisions. As you are all aware, gaining feedback from the community can be a challenge but is required to inform the Council in its decision making in regard to the LTP.

"I’m a single working mum and life is a juggle! However James and Amy are always offering to help when needed. They are just the type of couple that don't wait to be asked for help. Amy is forever helping to look after my dog when I’m at work or helping to get my kids to after school activities. James will come over and help me put up the kids temporary pool, do my lawn edges or take runs to the tip when I’m having a clear out. Always with a smile when I know they are busy parents themselves.
In addition to the many times they've helped me out personally, in the recent flooding in the Forrest Hill area, it was Amy that rang around her network and rallied a number of our families (and kids) to come and help affected neighbours to clear out their flooded homes and generally clean up once the waters had died down. I know she helped man a support area in the local community down in Milford shopping centre which provides support and goods to families hit hard. She's also the Chair of the Forrest Hill Primary School - she's just an all-around good sort who is very community-minded. James works for the Police and I know he's been up to the local school more than once to help educate our kids about what the police do and how to stay safe.
James and Amy are very humble, but I do really think they are some of the great unsung heroes that make our north shore community so special. I feel very blessed they are part of my adopted whānau!"

Miniature Schnauzers are hypoallergenic dogs, which means they do not shed like some dogs - making them the ideal mate, even for people with allergies. They are super smart and easy to train. You can expect these pups to be between 10-13kgs when fully grown.
Mum: Oakley is our family pet and this is her second litter. She is a purebred salt and pepper mini and very affectionate. She lives for cuddles and is always close by my side.
Dad: Insta-famous Jeff the handsome black schnauzer. He is a real gentle soul. He has fathered many litters and is a proven sire.
We have 3 black and 2 salt and pepper boys still available and 1 salt and pepper girl left.
Puppies will be ready to go to their new families from the first week in March.
All puppies are raised in our home and will be well socialised. They will be vet checked and have had their first vaccinations before they go off to their new families.
To secure your puppy we will require a non-refundable deposit of $250.00. Contact me today to express your interest arrange a puppy visit.
Happy to assist with pet transfer nationwide, through a trusted service provider.

Being into skiing I put all terrain tyres on it in winter 23 to drive up the ski access roads. I had planned to put these back on after the ski season to save the tread on the AT's as they are perfectly warrantable and legal, but I never got around to getting it done. So rather than them sitting around, maybe they are useful to someone else?
Photos were taken at night, will try to remember to take some during the day to add. All should be warrantable, but two look to be better than the other two. You are welcome to come and view.
Pickup is from Coopers Creek area
