Why do we need this package?

In the next 30 years, we anticipate that 90 per cent of Waipā's population will reside in urban areas (towns and villages), a 20 per cent increase from the current numbers. Community facilities such as community halls, libraries, museums, sports fields, and aquatic facilities play a crucial role in meeting the diverse needs of both urban and rural residents.

We also need to ensure that all individuals feel a sense of belonging in those places by aligning customary practices with present and future needs. The role of these communities’ facilities and spaces will evolve to encompass a broader range of functions that are increasingly relevant to the communities they serve.
