Councillors complete Three Year Plan hearings


Councillors have listened to the views of 124 organisations and individuals during three days of public hearings on the draft Three Year Plan (TYP).

Mayor Bob Parker said it was great example of democracy in action, with the full Council listening carefully to all the presentations as they reflect the passions and concerns of the community.

“The submissions reflect the strong interest the community has in how Christchurch is rebuilt and particularly how we prioritise and pay for it. Everyone in our community is under pressure around costs, it’s a universal issue.”
All submissions will be considered and debated by the Council, and any changes thought necessary by councillors will be made before the final plan is adopted at the end of June.
