Plain-English summary

New Plymouth District Council is gathering early input for its 2027-2037 plan. It wants to know which services matter most, where investment should be prioritised and how to balance service levels, fees and charges, rates and affordability.

The exercise also seeks feedback on draft Community Board plans. No detailed budget decisions have been made: specific proposals, projects and budgets are due to go through formal consultation in early 2027.

Why it matters

The eventual plan will guide council spending, infrastructure and services from 2027 to 2037.

This is an early priorities exercise; specific proposals, projects and budgets will be consulted on formally in 2027.

Who may care

  • Residents, ratepayers, businesses, mana whenua and community organisations
  • Users of council services and people involved with local Community Boards

How to make a submission

  1. Read the official consultation material.
  2. Submit feedback through the official consultation page before the closing date.
