This Annual Plan consultation outlines the projects and proposals we’re planning for the year ahead and beyond. It also includes key financial details, including proposed rates. We’ve got some hard decisions to make and we want your views.
Kia ora from Kirsten WiseProposals within this Annual Plan consultation document are a direct response to the public’s desire to keep rate increases to a minimum. This core driver means we need to make hard decisions, and in some areas we need your feedback to confirm the way forward. Our proposed average rates increase for 2025/26 is 7.9%, down from 11.7% signalled in the Three-Year Plan 2024-27. To bring the increase down, we have committed to finding labour cost efficiencies, which are currently being worked through. We have also reduced the Resilience Rate for 2025/26 to cover scheduled resilience projects only.
We've provided a number of ways for people to have their say on Napier's Annual Plan.
