Marking Matariki, thinking ahead on local government
Published on 09 July 2026
This week we mark Matariki around the district. We ask you to take a few minutes to reflect on the district's options for the future of local government and complete our survey. SH25 Pepe Stream temporary pedestrian bridge opens in Tairua. Variable Speed Limit signs outside local schools have been installed. And a public meeting on the effects of extreme weather around Tairua is on next week.
