Council seeks feedback on ‘community outcomes’

Tauranga City Council is refreshing the ‘community outcomes' it uses as goals to determine how the city will look and feel in the future.

Public feedback on the outcomes is being sought through a survey running from today until July 26.

The council set five outcomes in 2017, and is looking to update these ahead of the Long-term Plan 2021-31.

The proposed outcomes are:
• Tauranga is a city that values our natural environment and outdoor lifestyle, and actively works to protect and enhance it
• Tauranga is a city that is well planned, with a variety of successful and thriving compact centres and resilient infrastructure
• Tauranga is a city that attracts and supports a range of business and education opportunities, creating jobs and a skilled workforce
• Tauranga is a city that recognises and values culture and diversity, and where people of all ages and backgrounds are included, feel safe, connected and healthy
• Tauranga is a well-connected city, easy to move around and with a range of sustainable transport choices

"The outcomes were created from community feedback on various projects around the city," says a Tauranga City Council spokesperson.

"The purpose of the survey is to check to make sure we heard you right and to find out which are important to you.

""Once adopted, the new outcomes will help set our strategic direction and will help us prioritise resourcing and funding."

Over the coming year, there will be more opportunities to provide input into the Long-term Plan 2021-31 and the development of a vision for our city.

The survey is available online at www.tauranga.govt.nz/outcomes.

Printed survey forms are available at city libraries and our 91 Willow St service centre.

Beautiful goals

Failed on the first one because they are poisoning people with the port industry emissions. Failed on the second one because they couldn't plan a p**s up in a brewery. I switched off after that, no point reading anymore because it's all just total b*ll**ks.


Out of reach

I agree with Slim to BS when have the TCC ever listened to the Ratepayers, their planners wouldn’t have a clue, leave well alone.
