Timaru Growth Strategy

Planz developed the Timaru Growth Strategy to provide a strategic framework for sustainable growth across the district and guide the upcoming District Plan review.

The Strategy focuses on ensuring the Council meets its obligations under the National Policy Statement on Urban Development Capacity.

The project involved close liaison with expert economists and the Council’s planning and asset teams to ensure future growth is sustainable and efficiently serviced. Planz was involved in drafting the Strategy, presenting proposals to elected members, and preparing reports for hearings based on stakeholder feedback.
