Securing Kapiti Coast's Water Supply for 100 Years
17/09/2014
The paper describes Kapiti Coast District Council’s journey from a position where historically it was grappling with the future of its water supply, to the point where it had consents for the next 35 years, and a water supply plan for the next 100 years. That journey included optioneering, investigations, involvement of iwi/community/stakeholders, modelling, concept design, assessment of environmental effects, consenting. The paper concludes with the lessons learned during the course of the project; with particular reference to resilience planning, infrastructure planning, and the sweating of existing assets.
