Auckland Council invests in a wide range of public amenities. In setting overarching policy for provision of these amenities, in evaluating business cases for specific amenities being proposed, and in determining how to fund different amenities, we need to understand their use and non-use values. Auckland Council seeks proposals to estimate: - use and non-use economic values- - of eight specific council-provided amenities- - for the general population, retirement village residents, and tertiary student accommodation residents. The focus of this is on eight Council-provided amenities: - pools - libraries - community centres - leisure centres - arts centres - indoor courts - local parks - sports parks. We want to understand not just the total value that people receive from these specific amenities, but how that value is split between use values and non-use values. The total budget for this project cannot exceed $220,000 plus GST. This should include all disbursements or work you plan to outsource to a third party, including survey work if any.
