Betty Wark Room Ellen Melville Centre
(click on the link for more info)

We will go through the required AGM decisions, including electing a new committee.

CCRG are always looking for other city centre fans to join the committee, to provide the widest range of perspectives that our incredibly diverse city centre contains, and deserves.

You don't need 'committee experience', you just need your lived experience and enthusiasm for making the CC a better place for residents.
And whatever time you can share.

We are all volunteers doing what we can.
Providing a voice for city centre residents.


We will also have a presentation and kōrero on 

A Locky Dock Network for Auckland's City Centre

Guest speaker: Cleve Cameron, co-founder and Managing Director of Big Street Bikers.

'Big Street Bikers is on a mission to enable more people to bike more often — to reduce congestion, reduce emissions and contribute to the community vibe.

To do this they’re rolling out a network of innovative and attractive Locky Docks across Aotearoa. Cleve will be presenting  about how Locky Docks are helping Aucklanders make the switch to a bike ride for short trips.'

Cleve will be sharing Big Street Bikers proposed locations for the City Centre and the benefits of a network of Locky Docks providing bike parking, charging, and wayfinding.
