North Canterbury mayors pay tribute to 'remarkable' Queen Elizabeth II
Condolence books have been set up in Hurunui and Waimakariri following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
Mayors of both districts have also expressed their condolences after the Queen died last week, aged 96.
“After 70 years of service, we acknowledge the Queen's unwavering commitment to us all as the longest reigning monarch,” Hurunui mayor Marie Black said.
“She was a true symbol of stability with an incredible devotion to her duties, family and faith. May she rest in peace.
The flag at the council offices in Amberley and the flag at the Hanmer Library/Service Centre were lowered to half-mast to honour the Queen and her outstanding service.
Books of condolence were made available at all libraries and service centres across the district from Monday.
Waimakariri mayor Dan Gordon acknowledged the Queen’s “remarkable service and devotion”.
“As the longest reigning monarch, she had a strong sense of duty and dedicated her whole life to her throne and the service of her people.”
The flag at the Rangiora Service Centre and the Ruataniwha Kaiapoi Civic Centre were lowered to half-mast last week.
Books of condolence were made available at Waimakariri council libraries from Monday.

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
