If you require Agendas or Minutes further back than six months please send us an email. Copies of all open agendas and minutes may be inspected during normal office hours at the:
Public Excluded Agendas are not available to the public, but where there is a Public Excluded Agenda, the item headings can be seen at the back of the open Agendas.
Agendas for all open Council and Committee meetings are available for public inspection two days prior to the meeting, with the exception of Extraordinary meetings of Council where agendas are available as soon as is reasonable and at the meeting. (Public excluded items are not included). Copies of the current open agendas and minutes may be inspected during normal office hours at the Council and libraries. Agendas and confirmed minutes previous to 2019 are available to view on the Documents and Forms page.
Formal Council Meetings are held at six weekly intervals, with the cycle commencing in February and ending in mid December. The Council operates a system of double debate, whereby reports and recommendations from all Committees are reconsidered at the Council meeting in order to reach a final decision. The exception is when an urgent decision is required, in which case a decision of Council may be made at Committee level, where there is unanimous approval.
Council meetings are held in the Council Chambers, Ruataniwha Street, Waipawa at 9:00am.
Extraordinary meetings of Council are called to deal with specific issues, as and when required. Public notification of the meeting must be given as is reasonable, and must include the general nature of the business to be transacted.
If the meeting was not previously notified in the usual manner, resolutions from these meetings must be notified as soon as practicable, unless the resolution was passed in the public excluded section of the meeting.
The public is welcome and encouraged to attend all Council and Committees meetings. However, the Chairperson will ask the public to leave when and if the meeting moves into the public excluded section of the meeting. Members of the public do not have speaking rights as meetings.
