The five plan outcomes are:

- An efficient and accessible travel network
- Healthy and active communities
- Our unique natural environment is protected and enhanced
- A resilient local economy
What’s next: Auckland Council’s 10-year budget
As well as helping us develop our local board plan for the next three years, and the work programmes to deliver on it, your feedback also helps us to advocate to the Governing Body on issues facing Upper Harbour.
You’re welcome to register to have your say on the 10-year budget (Long Term Plan), where we’ll be advocating on behalf of Upper Harbour for:
- Prioritisation of investment for open space development in areas where there is a known need and gap in the network, such as:
- Scott Point Sustainable Sports Park
- a sub-regional indoor court facility in the Upper Harbour Local Board area.
- A long term solution for a library
- Acquisition of Bomb Point, Hobsonville
- Adequate levels of renewals funding to ensure assets are well maintained
You can help support our advocacy items by having your say on the 10-year budget (Long Term Plan) from 22 February to 22 March next year.

What happens next?
All 21 of Auckland’s Local Boards are developing their new 2020 Local Board Plans based on what we heard and other inputs such as the Auckland Plan, Long Term Plan, and Annual Budget.
Given the extraordinary circumstances we now face, you can expect to see some localised responses to Covid-19 recovery, and some things may need to be put on hold.
The next phase of this consultation will be in July when we come back to you with an opportunity to have your say on the draft Upper Harbour Local Board Plan.
We will be back in touch when phase two opens.
