Council contributes to community development through the provision and maintenance of recreation facilities, encouraging the use of these facilities and organising/supporting events that will contribute to community well-being.

What has changed since the LTCCP

There is an increased focus on working together with schools, sports clubs, the community, Sport Northland and other regional sports organisations to deliver better outcomes for sporting participation, better skill levels, and more sporting opportunities for school-age children.

Council will also be focusing its resources on improving services and support to sport and recreation clubs that co-locate and share facilities at recreation hubs.

Council will be up-grading the Kerikeri community swimming pool by installing discharge tanks.

Council has determined that the one off grants to improve access to the Northland College swimming pool and the Whangaroa Community Pool were successful and will continue. This will next be reviewed as part of the 2012/22 LTCCP process.

Additional funding has been agreed for Lindvart Park, Kaikohe.
