The Coromandel is a special place. A stunning physical environment, with spectacular beaches, dramatic landscapes and scenic bush.
We are a diverse and passionate community - we care deeply about local and district issues. We have a history of taking action and getting involved in local issues.
As a Council, we know and value that passion and sense of community. It gives the Coromandel its spirit, and enriches our daily lives and the life of our towns. The Peninsula is not just about beautiful scenery, it is also the people and the communities they build and support that make us unique.
The Council is governed by a Mayor and eight Councillors. The Mayor is elected "at large" across the whole District. The Councillors are elected from three wards (Coromandel/Colville, Coromandel Peninsula East and Thames) and are also members of various Community Boards and Council Committees.
