Community Wellbeing - Lifestyle & Enjoyment

Option 3

Residents supporting Option 3 believe that the current level of services provided by the council is minimal, and further reductions would not significantly impact their lifestyle and enjoyment. They argue for maintaining essential services like the current library system, suggesting it meets community needs effectively without additional investment. Additionally, they propose utilizing existing empty buildings for new needs instead of embarking on new building projects, indicating a preference for resourcefulness over expansion in the face of financial constraints.

Point No	Comment
450.1	the ncc offer minimal services as it is, so less isnt going to make much difference
1093.1	Lets keep the current library.  It works.  Place a hold on all building projects.  There are more empty buildings around Nelson with a drop in retail, can we not utilize these in some way if there is a need?
