The mayor and councillors were sworn in at the inaugural meeting on Thursday 24 October at the Motueka Memorial Hall. They took an oath of office, promising to act in the best interests of the whole District. The oath commits councillors to balance their responsibility to raise issues affecting their wards with their responsibility to make decisions on behalf of the interests of the whole community, including future generations.

Committee structure and membership will be confirmed on 31 October and this page will be updated with more information following that meeting.

Kaumātua - Harvey Ruru and Jane du Feu

Both Kaumātua provide the Mayor and elected members with support around tikanga Māori at civic events.

This role also enhances Council’s understanding of iwi and Māori priorities and supports the Council’s Community Outcome of “our communities have opportunities to celebrate and explore their heritage, identity and creativity”.
