Submissions on economic growth CCO proposal to close next week
Local residents have until next week to give Rotorua District Council (RDC) feedback on a proposal to establish a Council Controlled Organisation (CCO) for implementing the council’s Sustainable Economic Growth Strategy.
The last day for submissions is Tuesday 21 February.
RDC economic & regulatory services group manager Mark Rawson said while the CCO would be a board of independent people from outside RDC, they would work in close partnership with the council.
“The growth strategy aims to achieve three key outcomes which contribute to realisation of the district’s vision of ‘Rotorua: Living the dream – world Class in Every Way’.
“Over the next five years those three broad priorities will be to boost the reputation of Rotorua, to lift the performance of the local economy, and to raise living and skills standards.”
Anyone interested in making comment on the council’s proposal to establish an economic growth CCO for Rotorua can pick up a copy of the CCO Establishment proposal and submission form from the Civic Centre in Haupapa Street or download the documents from the council website www.rdc.govt.nz.
