Council representation review begins

The Team from Whangarei District Council

The new feature of Māori wards on our electoral map has triggered a review of how general votes are represented by Council.

The year-long process begins with an anonymous survey about how well (or not well) different communities fit in to their wards. How well do you fit yours?

Public feedback may change the number of wards or the number of Councillors. Learn more and participate at the 'Read more' link.
