Development<br />

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 />
