Annual and long term plans

Every three years the Council develops a long term plan for the next twenty years, with annual plans in the years in between.  Our current long term plan covers the years 2018-38, and we have an annual plan for the period July 2019 to June 2020. 

Annual plan 2019/20

The 2019/20 annual plan was adopted on 23 May 2019. 

The final document is available here, and the printed plan will be available in our services centres towards the end of June.

You can read more about the Annual Plan 2019/20 development process here or, for a summary of what's planned for 2019/20, refer to our guide to the draft annual plan.

The adoption of the plan sets what the rates will be for the 2019/20 financial year. Ratepayers can look up what their rates are likely to be through Council's property search tool. Follow the link to 'next rating year 2019/20'.

Long term plan 2018-38

Our 2018-38 Long term plan for building a stronger Kāpiti together was adopted by the Council on 28 June 2018.
