Final determination on Auckland Council’s representation arrangements for the 2025 local elections

On 14 March 2025, the Local Government Commission (LGC) issued its final decision on Auckland Council’s representation arrangements for the 2025 local elections. This follows a formal review process, public consultation and consideration of appeals and objections.

The final determination (decision) confirms how elected members will represent Aucklanders in local elections. This includes:

• the number of councillors
• the number of wards, their names and boundaries
• the number of local board members
• the names of local boards
• subdivision arrangements for local boards, if applicable.

These arrangements will apply to the 2025 elections to ensure fair and effective representation across the region.
