The city you want

Earlier this year we started a conversation with the people of North Shore City and asked as many of you as possible:

• What you liked or didn’t like about North Shore City and your communities;
• what you valued and held important to you; and
• what were the issues that most needed to be addressed.

The conversation took place far and wide

We have reached thousands of you by going along to festivals and city events and holding more than 80 meetings with community groups, sports and interest groups, business leaders, schools, government agencies, migrant groups, community boards and many others. We also received over 2,500 feedback messages from you on postcards and by email.

We now have your Community Outcomes!

The feedback is exciting and as diverse as our city’s many nationalities, age groups, interests and activities. In all cases your feedback has been invaluable as we begin to build a picture of the outcomes you want for the future of your communities and city.

“You told us”

• That you love our city
• That you welcome the conversation
• That community, family and a sense of belonging are all important
• That you want the city to reach its potential - you want it brought to life!
• That our young people must be cherished, celebrated and given a place in our community.

You told us that for our city to succeed four things needed to be present in every aspect of our community:

• Leadership – Council and community leadership
• Celebration – Celebrating what we have, identifying and promoting who we are
• Community – Cohesion, a sense of belonging, a sense of place; a community where people get to know each other
• Partnerships – Sharing ideas, resources and progressing together
