1.4.1 Other Planning Documents The Long Term Plan – The Long Term Plan (previously the LTCCP) is a fundamental requirement of the Local Government Act 2002. The LTP contains key activities of all of the Council activities, assets, levels of service and costs of providing the service. The plan contains detailed information for the three years and outline information for a further seven years. The AMP provides the detailed information that is summaries into the LTP. Annual Plan - Each year the Long Term Plan is reviewed, updated and published to the public for discussion through the Annual Plan. Progress on infrastructure projects, performance against levels of service and financial matters are reported through Annual Report. Resource Management Plans - The existing plans (Wairau/Awatere and the Marlborough Sounds Resource Management Plans) are currently being revised. The policies and plans incorporated into the resource management plan dictate the environmental control objectives and therefore have a major influence on water management. Water and Sanitary Services Assessment (WASSA) - The Assessment was carried out in 2005 and considered the status of Council, community and neighbourhood water and wastewater schemes. The Assessment is due for review. Bylaws - Council has powers to right local enforceable bylaws. The district Water Supply Bylaw is currently being reviewed. The Awatere Water Supply Scheme has byelaws established at the initiation of the scheme. Urban Growth Strategy - In the last four years the Council has been evolving urban growth strategies for North and South Marlborough and the Central Business District. The Assets & Services Department have been fully involved in the evolution of the strategies. Outline development plans are being prepared for the identified urban growth pockets which will inform the planning of future water service upgrades and development. 1.5 Water Assets Council operates seven water schemes - Blenheim, Picton, Renwick, Havelock Awatere, Riverlands and Wairau Valley.
