The role of the Strategic (Wellbeing) Framework
The Strategic Framework informed the 2024/34 Long Term Plan, including our values, purpose, vision, and the environmental outcomes we aim for. It guided our focus, service levels and performance indicators influenced by Pūwhenua ki Ruapehu.
Guiding pillars
The Strategic Framework is guided in its implementation by Council commitments to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and providing Strong Leadership, Advocacy and Financial Stewardship.
Te Tiriti o Waitangi
- The intention of the Te Tiriti o Waitangi pillar is to acknowledge the importance of Te Tiriti to our district.
- Council acknowledges these responsibilities are distinct from the Crown’s Treaty obligations and lie within a Ruapehu District Council context.
- We recognise our unique responsibilities under Te Tiriti o Waitangi within the Ruapehu District, emphasising partnership, participation of Māori, and protection of their rights.
Strong Leadership, Advocacy and Financial Stewardship
- The pillar of Strong Leadership, Advocacy and Financial Stewardship underlines our dedication to advocating for accessible, affordable services and managing our resources transparently and responsibly.
