Our regions population is predicted to double in the next 50 years. What kind of place would you want it to be? Where would you or your children like to live? Where will you work? What is important to your lifestyle? What quality of environment would you want to have?
How we manage the demand for housing and industrial land and how we plan for infrastructure such as roads and water treatment plants is vital to the sustainability of the place we live in. Dealing with the impacts of growth is a major challenge facing the sub-regional community; the area within Hamilton, Waipa District, Waikato District and Morrinsville.
FutureProof is a joint project set up by partner councils to consider how the sub-region should develop into the future.
The Future Proof Strategy and Implementation Plan 2009 was launched by Prime Minister John Key and Kiingi Tuheitia in Hamilton on 8 September 2009.
