After more than a year of work, Council today officially adopted the Economic Development Strategy and Action Plan, providing a clear roadmap for a stronger, more resilient and prosperous Kaikōura.
The strategy sets out a long-term vision for a regenerative, year-round economy that supports our people, businesses and communities, while protecting and enhancing the natural and cultural assets that make Kaikōura unique.
Key focus areas include:
🏡 Housing and community wellbeing
🌊 A diverse, year-round economy
💪 A resilient economy
🌿 Connected, liveable and environmentally rich places
Together, these priorities will help create the conditions for Kaikōura to remain a great place to live, work, visit and invest in for generations to come.
A huge thank you to everyone who contributed throughout the development of the strategy, including those who took the time to make a submission and share their feedback. Your input has helped shape this important piece of work and the direction it sets for our district.
