The Citysafe plan and it's strategic fit for Auckland city

The City Safe Plan contributes to the council's long-term vision of Auckland city as the 'First City of the Pacific'. To make Auckland the best city it can possibly be, Auckland City will concentrate on the three levels shown in the pyramid below. Safety is an intrinsic factor in all three levels; being a world leader, being a world class city, and having a strong big city baseline.

World leaders Global city

Auckland is a youthful, cosmopolitan, safe and equitable global city; a great place to live, welcoming of new migrants and businesses. Our diverse communities, and our pioneer and distinct Pacific heritage, give us a special identity in the world. Auckland's vitality and our special identity stimulate social, cultural and business opportunities.
World class Lifestyle
Each Aucklander can enjoy the benefits and lifestyle opportunities provided by our location, and feel safe throughout the city.

Pride
Auckland has a distinct identity. We identify with, and celebrate our city.

Vibrant local centres
We have vibrant, distinctive and connected local centres that reflect all our communities. These attract people because of their distinct characteristics.
Big city baseline Auckland is sustainably managed to provide:
  • the infrastructure and networks that make the city work for people, visitors and businesses
  • access for everyone to the community and social facilities, networks and services that we need to support a safe and cohesive Auckland.
