Valentine's Day is the final day for expressions of interest to be part of Tauranga City Council's Heart of the City Programme Technical Advisory Group.

The Technical Advisory Group is going to offer critiques on design aspects of publicly delivered projects in the city centre, and provide recommendations on the way forward.

Some examples of projects where the TAG is expected to have input include new streetscape and open space upgrades, and the civic precinct project.

The TAG will have seven members, ideally with a range of expertise in architecture, landscape architecture, urban design, planning, engineering, sustainability (buildings), arts and culture, place-making, governance and the Tauranga community.

Nominations close 5pm on February 14. The Expression of Interest form is available.

A panel, which will include one elected member, one independent expert and a council staff member, will make appointment recommendations for Elected Members to consider at the 21 March Council meeting.

Successful TAG members will initially meet in March/April 2017, and will provide review advice to Council on an anticipated bi-monthly period.

If the CBD had a heart you could possibly look at a transplant!, at the moment all you have is a "body" that does whatever it wants, and never has worried what it's heart ( constituents ) have to say!!!, so talk it up all you want, the decisions have already been made.
