Draft Asset or Activity Management Plans
Whakatāne District Council's Draft Asset or Activity Management Plans (AMPs) have been reviewed alongside the development of the Council's Long Term Plan 2018-28 Consultation Document.
AMPs set out a 10-year programme for the management of specific groups of assets. The documents are reviewed cyclically (typically at least every three years) to ensure they remain relevant.
