Northern Marlborough Urban Growth Strategy Decision Meetings
The Northern Marlborough Urban Growth and Development strategy has progressed through the strategy development and public consultation phases, and the Council is now ready to make decisions on the final strategy prior to its implementation. The strategy sought to identify how and where residential and industrial growth should take place, and also amenity issues, such as traffic speed, open space and infrastructure, that should be resolved to make each place a better place to live.
