Managing the current and future levels of growth in Tasman relies on the insights and suggestions we receive from the community. However, this is often through a somewhat regulated consultation process dictated by legislation determining a process leaving little room for much else.
To make this process a bit more approachable, we recently set up Shape Tasman, an online engagement tool, enabling a great deal more information to be introduced in consultation exercises. It allows comments and more ‘free flow’ responses, but it is still limited to policies, programmes and projects in question.
In an effort to set up a more informing relationship with residents who wish to be involved, we have set up a page on Shape Tasman called ‘Let’s talk, Tasman’. Through this page, residents can sign up to receive information and contribute to the development of initiatives and projects, test our ideas, and provide early input into policies and decisions that affect Tasman communities.
This is a great way to informally contribute to the future of Tasman through discussion and sharing your views on early consideration of plans etc.
It won’t be every day and certainly won’t be too onerous, but it will enable great insight from the very people our work is designed to benefit.
