Water is a finite resource some communities already struggle to have enough, let's protect it and use it wisely.
Help our environment regenerate and be healthy again. Swimmable rivers, healthy lakes and harbours.
Our waste needs to be looked at not just as council, but as a city and a country, we can't just push it to one side for the next generation.
Commit to the reduction of chemicals in our water supply by upgrading our water infrastructure.
Establish funded pest eradication crews.
Commit to getting the CCC ISO 14001 certified.
Ensure safe drinking water across Banks Peninsula, through replenishing infrastructure, and prioritise health for harbours and waterways.
Create living streets, supporting locals to increase capacity to grow biodiversity in all of our communities, and eliminate pests.
Continue and extend the waste and recycling education programme across our city.
