Ongoing projects and programmes

We have a number of projects and programmes that run continuously to support us in achieving our strategic goals.

  Predator Free Palmy

  Green Corridors

  Green Corridors projects enhance native bush along streams, provide places for wildlife to thrive, improve water quality and create open green spaces.

• Welcoming Communities

  Welcoming Communities is a two-year pilot programme to welcome newcomers to the city.

  Placemaking

  Placemaking is a community-based approach to improving neighbourhoods and reinventing public spaces.

• Business & economy

  As well as running the city day to day, we take an active role in encouraging economic wellbeing in our region.

• People on bikes forum

  The people on bikes forum has been set up to champion safe cycling networks for our community.

• Notable trees

  A notable tree is one that has historical or cultural value. By keeping a schedule of notable trees within the District Plan we are able to protect and recognise those of value to the city.

• Safe community

  Palmerston North residents want our city to be the safest in New Zealand. Find out what we’re doing to help our community achieve this goal.
