Tararua District Council received 136 submissions on its draft Annual Plan.

Hearings were held last week on the submissions, which saw affordability as a common theme.

Mayor Tracey Collis said Council are very aware of the challenges everyday rising costs are placing on residents.

She said there was also a lot of concern regarding Councils’ debt limit, something which will be monitored closely.

Councillors will now hold workshops to deliberate on submissions before the Annual Plan is finalised before the end of this month.
