Hi Eddy,
No sorry theres no update yet - the latest is still the same that TCDC want to propose developing one in its draft Ten Year Plan which will go out for consultation early in 2009.

Any update on the "social wellbeing strategy"?

Thanks

kia ora for that. Its great to hear that they are at least considering something along the lines of that. I would love to be notified and sent a copy of the draft plan when ready. Thanks

TCDC's reply to Tarnz' quesion below:
TCDC doesn't have a community liaison position at the moment, but the Council is looking at whether it should develop what it calls a 'social wellbeing strategy' - this means the Council would look at the range of social issues on the Coromandel and think about what role it could have in working on those. It would include thinking about youth issues as well as others such as elderly people, gambling etc, and also whether a community liaison position would be worthwhile. But to do this it needs to find some funding. The Council will probably include this issue when it consults on its draft Ten-Year Plan (our budget) early next year. Anyone can give feedback on that, and you might want to suggest your idea then too. We can send you out a copy of the draft Plan when its ready - just let us know if you want us to do that!

Hi Tarnz - good question, ill check with the relevant people at TCDC and will get you an answer asap!

if there shows a huge interest in a youth council, could there b a possibilty of a community liason position developed wherter they could have a focus on youth council development???

Cheers

Thanks for joining up and getting involved J Bax...

Construction on a replacement for the Waiomu sheds, starts today, or possibly tomorrow. TCDC will replace the old shed with a similiar one, but only better and with a cool new design. The replacement should be finished by the end of June.

Why did they pull down waiomu sheltersheds they where primo they had changing rooms and showers to wash the saltwater off

I agree, that's an excellent idea

I don't quite know how you'd implement it but still...

Its fantastic to see that you are considering to listening to what youth want, and i guess a question that i have for you is... Would you ever consider having a Thames - Coromandel Youth Council, because then this would allow more of an input through verbal feedback rather than written??
