Ōmokoroa-Kaimai Community Board

Kaimai East Subdivision
The Ōmokoroa-Kaimai Community Board represents your local community and advocates to Western Bay of Plenty District Council about local issues, including public transport and facilities such as libraries and parks. The board is made up of eight members: six members elected by voters, including Two members from your area, and two members from the Western Bay of Plenty District council. There will be no election this year because there are the same number of candidates as there are positions.

Climate change and resilience

Climate change poses a huge challenge for communities as more frequent extreme weather events require us to rethink how we live and where. Local authorities are at the forefront of efforts to respond, with responsibilities for environmental planning and regulation, as well as civil defence. Many councils have plans to reduce emissions in their area and are working to help their communities adapt to a warming world.
