Help shape the future of your local area
From today until 30 June, Auckland Council’s 21 local boards want feedback on the public consultation for draft Local Board Plans 2017, which help guide decisions on local activities and projects.
Local board plans are developed every three years and the proposed outcomes in them cover everything from:
local parks and playgrounds
/ sports facilities
/ town centre development
/ protecting the environment
/ community events and more.
Find out more and have your say

Share your thoughts in person at events hosted by your local board. A complete list of dates and locations can be found online at Shape Auckland or by calling your local board office.
On social media: Visit your local board Facebook page and mention 'Local Board Plan feedback' in your post or private message.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
