Public Meeting - Draft Community Development Strategy
Community development is about everyone working together to make our communities a fantastic place to grow up, grow old and everything in between.
There is a public meeting (2 July 5:30 - 6:30pm, at MDC Council Chambers, Manchester Street, Feilding), where community organisations that may have received funding from us, or which may be considering seeking funding, can find out what outcomes are proposed in our draft Community Development Strategy, and how it may affect them.
• How we have developed the strategy
• What is the same and what has changed in the services we will be funding
• Making submissions on the draft strategy
RSVP - Please let us know if you are coming for catering/space purposes - public@mdc.govt.nz.
