Tuesday 27th September - Local Election candidates meeting

Carl from Brooklyn Residents Association Incorporated

Hello,

We remind you to "book in" Tuesday the 27th of September for the GBRAI Local Body Candidates meeting at the Brooklyn Community Centre. We will have (hopefully) a full slate of candidates for:

# the two seats for the Southern Ward / Paekawakawa
# Mayor
# Greater Wellington Regional Council

We strongly encourage your attendance to observe, question and listen to those standing again and those standing to take a seat at council.
As well, I have attached a list from WCC website of other candidates meeting around the city (as at 12/08/2022):

Community candidate events

During the election period, community organisations (such as residents' associations) will be holding events where you can hear from your local candidates.

This webpage will be updated with event information on a regular basis, so if you’re waiting to see about an event in your area please check back often – or feel free to organise your own event.
