Wellington Region Hazards Management Strategy feedback

Our region is an outstanding place to live, work and play. The dynamic forces that have helped shape the natural beauty of the Wellington region also cause natural hazards that affect all our communities. It is critical these risks are properly considered when making decisions which have long term implications for development in our region.

The draft Natural Hazards Management Strategy sets out a road map for council cooperation to deliver greater efficiency in hazards research and planning and greater consistency in the management of natural hazards. The aim of the draft strategy is to provide a coherent regional framework to inform planning documents, such as city, district and regional plans, long term plans or asset management plans. It is paired with an implementation and action plan providing coherent actions designed to carry out the objectives in embodied in the strategy.
