Council manages significant three waters and transport infrastructure on behalf of the
community. Most of this infrastructure has a long life, typically many decades.
While the Long-term Plan provides Council’s delivery plans for the near future, this infrastructure strategy
ensures that this planning is done within the context of ensuring sensible, efficient and
sustainable management of three waters and transport infrastructure for the long term.
This strategy aims to demonstrate that Council is carefully managing these assets by setting out
how Council will ensure it meets these objectives:
- Assets are well looked after and in good condition for future generations
- We are planning and investing to support growth and housing
development
- We are maintaining levels of service and improving public health and
environmental outcomes
- We are managing natural hazard risks to ensure our infrastructure is
resilient.
The infrastructure strategy is a key part of, and sits within, our Long-term Plan.
