Tasman District Council is preparing for an anticipated 14 per cent increase in the population by 2031 while Nelson City Council has assumed growth of 4.5 per cent. The councils have planned for housing development accordingly.
Nelson is coming under pressure to shoulder more of the demand for housing in the Nelson-Tasman region. Tasman District Council urged the Nelson City Council to review the growth assumptions and infrastructure programme outlined in its draft Long Term Plan 2021-31 to ensure a “sufficient amount of serviced land”. The city council has assumed population growth of 4.5 per cent in the next 10 years, well below a 17 per cent increase experienced over the past decade.
