Every three years Council produces a Long Term Plan or 10 year plan. This plan looks closely at the first three years and then takes a more general view of the outlying seven years. The most recent Long Term Plan (Vision the 10 year plan) was produced last year and looks out 2009 to 2019. Council will repeat this process in 2012, looking out to 2022.

The 10 year plan contains a 10 year programme of Council activities, forecast expenditure and intended revenue sources.  All district and and regional Councils are required to have a Long Term Plan.

The Long Term Plan is a large document so we have broken it down into parts:

• Vision, the 10 year plan (Vol 1, Part 1 - Chapters 1 to 4)
  • Telling the Story: Who and what we are
• Vision, the 10 year plan (Vol 1, Part 2 - Chapters 5 to 11)
  • What we do and why
• Vision, the 10 year plan (Vol 1, Part 3 - Chapters 12 to 16)
  • Activity Groups
• Vision, the 10 year plan (Vol 1, Part 4 - Chapters 17 to 23)
  • Finances
• Vision, the 10 year plan (Vol 2)
  • Policies
  • Asset Management Plans Summaries
  • NRB Customer Satisfaction Survey results - 2008
  • State of the District Report Summary
