Programmes<br />
The <strong>Council</strong>’s funding<br />
of community service<br />
programmes contributes to<br />
the <strong>Hurunui</strong> district being:<br />
A desirable and safe place<br />
to live:<br />
• We have attractive well<br />
designed townships<br />
• Communities have access<br />
to adequate health and<br />
emergency services and<br />
systems and resources<br />
are available to meet civil<br />
defence emergencies<br />
• Risks to public health<br />
are identified and<br />
appropriately managed<br />
A place where our<br />
traditional rural values and<br />
heritage make <strong>Hurunui</strong><br />
unique:<br />
• People have a range<br />
of opportunities to<br />
participate in leisure and<br />
culture activities<br />
• Our historic and cultural<br />
heritage is protected for<br />
future generations<br />
The programmes delivered<br />
by council are often<br />
dependent on external<br />
funding. If funded via <strong>Council</strong><br />
rates, their continuation<br />
is very dependent on<br />
the community actively<br />
supporting the programmes.<br />
<strong>Long</strong> term continuation can<br />
not be guaranteed.<br />
100% benefit to the<br />
people in the district<br />
through strengthening<br />
communities ability to<br />
find local solutions and<br />
strengthening the skills<br />
and development of youth.<br />
There are no capital<br />
costs, and benefits from<br />
operational costs accrue<br />
at the time of expenditure.<br />
Operating Costs:<br />
• Youth is funded via <strong>District</strong> rate or thermal<br />
reserve surplus.<br />
• <strong>Community</strong> development programme is<br />
100% funded via government grant.<br />
Sustainability:<br />
• Both programmes are not likely to be<br />
sustainable into the future as they are<br />
dependent on external funding which<br />
has finite dates, or funding via rates. The<br />
programmes are designed to suit today’s<br />
issues and not necessarily the right fit in<br />
future years. They are very dependent on<br />
public support and results being produced.<br />
