September 2019 What's on your mind Southland

Southland. It’s the slice of paradise we all proudly call home.

The BIG question is …

Why do you choose to live in Southland?

We all know not everything always comes up roses. Challenges are part of our journey as a community. 

What do you see is the biggest challenge for Southland as a whole in the next 10 years?

As we embark on a new era in local government representation with a focus on community-led development, we want to know what YOUR priorities are.

Participate by casting a vote on one of the priorities listed in the centre column or contribute by commenting in the left column.
