Love local, get vocal and help shape the Waiheke Local Board Plan 2020-2023

The Waiheke Local Board has developed 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.

From the chair Cath Handley

Our Waiheke Local Board Plan is being finalised in a period of uncertainty, with the effects of COVID-19 reverberating through our communities. It heralds a major shift in gear for us as we grapple with the negative impacts of COVID-19 and the new possibilities we all embraced during lockdown.

Waiheke as an island sanctuary in the gulf

Because our economy has shifted so significantly, we have included some additional initatives for you to consider. The themes that emerged from the community consultation align with the essentially Waiheke refresh of 2016, which sets out the aspirations of our community. Among other things, you told us you want the essential character of Waiheke protected, that land and sea must be restored, and that our efforts need to meaningfully address climate change.

We have woven these themes into one concept to which you are warmly invited to respond. We think it is fit for the times - the concept of Waiheke as an island sanctuary in the gulf.

We are really keen to hear your feedback, so we can weave your contributions into the final plan.

Outcomes

Our plan has seven outcomes and a range of initiatives to achieve these:

  1. Sustainable development and livable places
  2. A sustainable economy
  3. Waiheke's environment is protected, restored and enhanced
  4. Thriving, strong and engaged communities
  5. Māori outcomes
  6. Vibrant places for people
  7. Transport and infrastructure

Have a look at the draft 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.
