新西兰布勒区议会和怀卡托区议会考虑推迟长期计划。 New Zealand's Buller and Waikato District Councils consider deferring Long-Term Plans.
由于政府新的供水服务立法被废除，新西兰布勒区议会正在考虑推迟其长期计划 (LTP) 的通过，而怀卡托区议会则由于财务规划挑战和政府政策变化而计划暂停其 2024-2034 年 LTP。 The Buller District Council in NZ is considering deferring its Long-Term Plan (LTP) adoption due to the government's new water services legislation repeal, while Waikato District Council plans to pause its 2024-2034 LTP due to financial planning challenges and government policy changes. 该委员会建议在 2024/25 财年改用“增强年度计划”，而不是制定十年计划。 Instead of working on the 10-year plan, the council proposes switching to an 'enhanced Annual Plan' for the 2024/25 financial year. 两个委员会的目标是为社区咨询提供更多时间，明确资金和负担能力问题，并了解 Waka Kotahi 对该地区道路计划的补贴水平。 Both councils aim to provide more time for community consultation, gain clarity on funding and affordability issues, and understand the level of Waka Kotahi subsidies for the district's roading program.
