Northern Tasmania Development
NTD is the northern regional development body established by the 8 councils that make up the Northern Tasmania region.
These councils are:
- Break O’Day Council
- Dorset Council
- Flinders Council
- George Town Council
- Launceston City Council
- Meander Valley Council
- Northern Midlands Council
- West Tamar Council
We are a hub for local government representatives to come together, we offer intelligence on developments within the area, and we act as a springboard to further information for businesses wishing to invest.
We also manage a number of projects, which are either funded by our shareholder councils, or by State or Federal governments. Examples include the Northern Tasmania Regional Land Use Planning Project funded by the Tasmanian Planning Commission, and the Regional Tourism Initiative funded by Tourism Tasmania.
Our role is to facilitate and coordinate economic and social development.
