1.3 KAIPARA DISTRICT
INFRASTRUCTURE STRATEGIC
FRAMEWORK

The strategic framework diagram
shows the interrelationships
between Council’s key strategy
documents as they relate to the
infrastructure area. The highest level
is the vision and community
priorities. The next level is the
Spatial Plans and District Plan that
guide development and signals the
infrastructure required in the future.
To service the infrastructure
requirements from the spatial plans
and to keep maintaining the core
assets, four large programmes are
proposed within this strategy. The
Activity Management Strategy
outlines the individual activity plans
that provide the detail on the
infrastructure activities including
condition, level of service, valuation,
forecast expenditure and issues. The
two bottom levels show the
                                           Infrastructure Strategy   Financial Strategy
significant projects currently
proposed within the programmes
and activity plans. These projects
are not an exhaustive list but show
some of the more significant and
diverse range of projects Council is
proposing over the upcoming two
LTP cycles.

1.2        LONG TERM PLAN
 TIMEFRAME

The Infrastructure Strategy is
part of a suite of strategy
documents that form part of
the Council Long-Term Plan
(LTP). This LTP process details
KDC’s investment priorities over
the next 10 years.

The current LTP 2018-2028,
was adopted by Council in
2018.

The LTP is reviewed every three
years, with the Annual Plan
providing the opportunity to
review the impact of this
process on a yearly basis.

crucial to enable Council to

BALANCING HOW TO FUND
NEW INFRASTRUCTURE

 As identified in the Sub-
 Regional Spatial Plan, Kaipara
 will need to plan the provision
 of appropriate infrastructure
 for the various towns and
 villages in the district.
 Infrastructure investment will
 be particularly required in the
 Key Urban Centres, Service
 Towns and Local Villages.

prioritise and coordinate significant infrastructure improvements. This
approach will also inform who Council will collaborate with to achieve the
programme goals.

2.6 HOW WE PLAN TO
TACKLE OUR CHALLENGES AND
OPTIMISE OUR OPPORTUNITIES

The Programme Management Office
(PMO) aims to centralise all KDC
projects by aligning them to the
governance framework and being
responsible for collecting and
coordinating all related information
to measure and define project
delivery. We have focused on the
standardisation of all project
deliverables and the methodology of
how projects should be approached
and delivered using best practice
principles and tools.

The objectives of the PMO are;
  ●  Implement a common
     methodology and governance
  ●  Standardise terminology and
     deliverables
  ●  Introduce effective repeatable
     project management
     processes
  ●  Provide common supporting
     tools
  ●  Improve levels of project
     success within the
     organisation                          Figure#. The PMO Framework - how we manage projects

Water supply is critical to our
economic and social well-being,
and with external factors
affecting our communities such

Wastewater Overview

The wastewater activity focuses
on protecting public and
environmental health by
collecting and treating
wastewater prior to its
discharge into receiving
environments. Continued
growth, as well as the need to
provide for visitors in peak
periods (particularly in coastal
communities), have resulted in
Council’s ongoing commitment
to significant wastewater
infrastructure development.

The Council undertakes asset
management, planning,
operation and maintenance of
these wastewater schemes,
including capital and
refurbishment programmes,
consent monitoring and
continuous maintenance
through its network
contractors..

finding a balance between
maintaining and enhancing

4.0       SIGNIFICANT DECISIONS
          NGA MAHI A WAI Māori -
          WATER STORAGE AND USE
          PROJECT

The Northland Regional Council
and MBIE have partnered with
Kaipara District Council to
explore the potential for
converting our high quality
soils for higher value
horticulture production. This
water storage and use project
seeks to hold water for
irrigation purposes to enable a
transition to growing crops like
kumara and avocado.
Additional employment
opportunities could be created
both on farms and in
processing plants in the towns
of Dargaville and Ruawai.
Council would like to utilise this
project to ensure water security
for the towns of Dargaville and
Te Kopuru, whose potable
water supplies almost depleted
due to the drought conditions
in 2019. This is considered a
significant decision as it is
signals significant investment
for both economic development
and town water supply
purposes.
