What matters most?

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

Kia ora, as part of the development of the Long-term Plan 2021—41 we want to know what matters most to you.

This weeks question is: What matters most as we experience growth across the district?

We will see higher demand across all Council services from an expanding population, and these services must be planned for with extra capacity. The continued growth in key demographics like older persons and young families also have implications for the types of infrastructure and services we will need to plan for in the future.

How do we plan ahead for growth, and the challenges and opportunities that it brings, ensuring Kāpiti continues to be a great place to live. Tell us what matters most to you.

Say goodbye to tyre waste

Tyrewise

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.

Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.

Find out more about the scheme online.
