Martinborough Community Board

The Martinborough Community Board represents your local community and advocates to South Wairarapa District Council about local issues, including public transport and facilities such as libraries and parks. The board is made up of six members: four members elected by voters, and two members from the South Wairarapa District Council. There will be no election this year because there are the same number of candidates as there are positions.
