Hamilton's Draft 10-year Plan
You may have read or heard that Hamilton’s 10-year plan is now open for public submissions. What does this mean and why is it so important for our community?
- HCC have drawn up their draft plan for the next 10 years. This sets out what they plan to spend money on and when; what they expect projects to cost and how they plan to fund them. (Note that by exclusion the draft also says what they plan to NOT spend money on!)
- A public consultation document has been written by HCC. This should be an easy-to-understand version of the key points in the draft plan.
- On 29 March that public consultation document is released to the public.
- From 29 March to 30 April 2018 the public can give feedback to HCC on the draft plan – this is the ‘making submissions’ part. It’s your chance to have your say on whether the draft plan should be changed before it becomes the operational plan.
- During May 2018 the Councillors debate the issues raised in the public submissions. Members of the public have an opportunity to make a verbal presentation to support their submissions.
- The draft plan is revised based on the public submissions and Council debate. Then on 28 June the revised plan is formally adopted as the working 10-year-plan for the city.
NECH has put together a simple guide to having your say on the 10-year plan; click the link below or see the attached document for more info.
