Kāpiti Coast District Council

It also makes decisions about building and planning, local regulations, and infrastructure, such as water supply and sewerage. The council is made up of 10 councillors and the mayor. One councillor will be elected from the Paekākāriki-Raumati ward. The other councillors will be elected from other wards or by all voters in the district. This is a single transferable vote (STV) election, so you vote by ranking the candidates on your ballot paper.

Local governments play a central role in protecting the environment, reducing waste and safeguarding biodiversity. The worsening state of New Zealand’s lakes and rivers is a major challenge for local councils, which work with regional councils in the management of water resources in their area.

  • Restore the Wharemauku stream, alongside mana whenua and the wider community.

    Create local recycling facilities across our Coast, led by the community and community boards. Review our waste collection systems.

    Empower and enable our community to contribute to the climate change adaptation kōrero (through the Takutai Coastal Adaptation Programme).

  • Resist the current Three Waters proposals – they are unfair to Kāpiti. Kāpiti has invested well, it should not fund those who haven't.

    Water management can be improved through a multi-district management system but it has to start on a level playing field.

    Develop options to utilise parts of a closed Kāpiti Airport and Wainuiwhenua near Paekākāriki to improve biodiversity and water control.
