Waitaki BA5: Hosted by Waitaki District Council (Economic Development Plan Feedback)
Mon 25 July 5:15pm - 7:00pm
The Business Hive, 120 Thames Street, Oamaru
Come and hear about the Waitaki District Council's Economic Development plan and provide feedback.
Waitaki District Council is set to consider a new, ambitious plan for the development of the Waitaki economy. Led by Polis Consulting Group and developed with the engagement of Te Rūnanga o Moeraki and local businesses, the draft Waitaki Economic Development Strategy outlines how the economy can grow by more than 8% above projected growth in the next 10 years, if the strategy is implemented. This would create between $70 and $146 million additional GDP and 1350 additional jobs in the district by 2032. Further, the strategy would also improve the environmental, community and cultural wellbeing of the district.
