Board chairman David Taipari said it was fair comment that the plan had elements that didn't reflect traditional council roles such as roading, water and rates but was a reflection of what Maori through consultation hui had told the board they wanted.
"We didn't want to set the bar too low ... The plan will enable the board members to be very strong and very clear in their direction. This is what Maori want..."
Not much can happen in the plan without councillors' support.
Mayor Len Brown wouldn't be drawn on how much he thought was achievable but drew a comparison with the Auckland Plan, saying if 75 per cent of it was completed, he would be happy.
