Community engagement for Frankton Masterplan begins
Queenstown Lakes District Council (QLDC) is kicking off the first phase of community engagement on the Frankton Masterplan.
The Masterplan will take a big picture approach looking at how Frankton looks, feels and functions both now and in 30+ years.
Mayor Jim Boult is excited to see this process start in Frankton and encourages residents to take part.
“The first phase of our engagement programme is all about understanding what the community wants out of Frankton, what will make it a great place to live, work and play now and into the future. The area faces challenges associated with growth and congestion and these need to be addressed,” says Mayor Boult.
Hearing from residents, businesses and community groups is imperative to the success of the Masterplan project. The insights gathered from this early engagement will inform a series of workshops which will shape the planning stages of the Masterplan for Frankton.
“Frankton is developing at such a pace we need to look at it in its own right and consider its unique needs and demands. It’s our chance to make a difference by investing in the future of Frankton,” continues Mayor Boult.
Details of the Frankton Masterplan project and ways that the community can join the conversation is available on the QLDC website.
