Love local, get vocal and help shape the Franklin Local Board Plan 2020-2023
The Franklin Local Board has come up with a three-year plan outlining the key initiatives we want to focus on to help our communities thrive and support the recovery from the impacts of COVID-19.
The plan has six outcomes:
- Our strengths generate local opportunity and prosperity
- Improved transport options
- Places and facilities that are fit for purpose
- Kaitiakitanga and protection of our environment
- Cultural heritage and Māori identity is expressed in our communities
- A sense of belonging and strong community participation
Have a look at the plan for more details of what we will do to deliver on these outcomes, and take the survey to tell us what's most important and what's missing.
Our 2020 Local Board Plan proposals are open for feedback until Thursday 13 August.
So love local and get vocal about your community by having your say. We'd love to hear from you.

A museum as part of the Pukekohe revamp by Panuku
Tuakau has a museum. Waiuku has a museum. Karaka has a museum. Pukekohe has the Pioneer Cottage. This is not congruent with the size and importance of the town. A lot of ideas have been proposed down the years - some have been the old Franklin County building, the railway station (relocated), ... but there doesn't yet seem to have been a willingness to affirmatively engage on this issue. Places like Dargaville are finding the museum to be a tourist attraction - and the Piuoneer Cottage does that in some measure. But there's scope for more!

Improve safety of Alfriston, Brookby Roads Truck Route with new cycle/pedestrian friendly lane etc
Spend money on road widening for the benefit of all road users. Make the road safe for Trucks, cars, cyclists, walkers, runners, (horse rider lanes near pony clubs). Make the bridges wider. Add a passing lane, Spend a lot more money on road maintenance. Current shinny surface with pot holes and ski jump white lines is unacceptable. Repairs and maintenance is required more often with heavy truck and trailers causing so much wear and tear damage. Lots of other roads like West Road require more road safety and surface maintenance work. All road side weeds need to be controlled and more mowing of grass verges need to be carried out in Franklin and Auckland wide.

Beachlands kids skate park
Good quality skate / activity park. The one in Mangawhai is really inspirational with multiple activities and areas for different age groups. This would be fantastic for our area to engage kids to be outdoors.

Footpath
Put a footpath on Shelly Bay Rd (Beachlands) between Beachlands Rd and Karaka Rd - this is a busy section of road with loads of trucks passing along it, and a lot of young families live in the area, who use this road as pedestrians.
