North Waipā - South Hamilton Spatial Study scenario feedback survey

Scenarios

Future Proof is undertaking a high-level study that will ensure future growth needs in the North Waipā – South Hamilton area are clearly understood and identified and that growth and investment can be well-coordinated.

As part of our planning, we have developed a number of scenarios. Scenarios are used to stimulate discussion on a range of possible futures. They are not predictions; rather, they provide high-level direction for planning purposes and help visualise and explore possible pathways, test trade-offs, and guide strategic direction in the coming decades.

We would now like your feedback on these scenarios. Let us know what you think by filling out the following form.

Your feedback will be used to inform the final North Waipā – South Hamilton Spatial Study Report. Thanks for having your say!

If you have any questions, please contact us at futureproofcoordinator@waikatoregion.govt.nz
