Tararua District Council is reminding local organisations and community groups that they can book council speakers to talk about the Annual Plan.
Meetings have been organised with Explore Pahiatua on May 3 at Bush Community Church at 7pm, and on May 8 at the Dannevirke Ratepayers and Residents Association meetingat 6.30 pm at the Christian Fellowship Hub.
Public consultation on the Annual Plan 2023/24 opened last Friday after the council adopted its consultation document and supporting information.
One of the main issues the council is calling for submissions on is a proposed rates increase of 13.18 per cent.
Other topics for consultation included water, wastewater, affordable waters reform, solid waste and cyclone recovery.
Local organisations wanting to book council speakers for an event can visit the Tararua District Council website: www.tararuadc.govt.nz/your-council/council-contacts and advise when the meeting is being held.
Community groups could also email the council at communications@tararuadc.govt.nz to request council attendance at a meeting to discuss the Annual Plan.
