District Growth Strategy

District Growth Strategy review

By 2073, we’re expecting an additional 33,300 people in Waipā, bringing our population to 95,500. We will soon consult with the community about making changes to our 2017 growth strategy to cater for this rapid growth.

2050 District Growth Strategy

Our community vision stated in the Growth Strategy is:

Te whakakotahitanga o te iwi o Waipā kia anga whakamua, kia hapai i te taiao.

Uniting the people of Waipā for progress while sustaining the environment.

The Growth Strategy is all about taking an integrated approach to managing growth.

To achieve this, we will:

• Recognise, protect and enhance the features of Waipā that make the district a special place
• Set a pattern for the future growth of settlements
• Integrate growth with infrastructure provision for a more cost-effective approach to development
