Timaru District Mayor Nigel Bowen is encouraging people to give feedback on a major planned spend on the CBD.
A $30 million spend up on central Timaru is on the district council s wish list for the next 10 years. Landscaping, improved paving tiles and further enhancement of Caroline Bay are some of the suggestions floated for the $30m that is in the council s draft Long Term Plan that is headed for public consultation in April. The council has dubbed the $30m strategy “CityHub” with a vision to regenerate the town centre. Timaru District Mayor Nigel Bowen told
Stuff the funding could go towards a variety of projects, but the aim was to have “the first major overhaul of the CBD in nearly 25 years”.
