Official information requests

You can ask Council for official information under the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987. This law helps people in Aotearoa New Zealand get information from local government, encourages openness, and lets more people take part in local government.

When making a request, be sure to include your name, your postal or email address, and clear details about the information you want.

See Official information requests for more information.
