Kawerau District Council has a small but motivated and professional team. We think it's a great place to work!

Local community groups, through their diverse range of activities, make a major contribution to the social, environmental, cultural and economic well-being of our District.

Kawerau District Council supports and facilitates sustainable community growth and development.

In this section you will find information about the Council's projects and plans for the District.

The governance model under the Local Government Act 2002 is representative democracy. The community elects individuals to make judgements on behalf of the community about what will promote community well-being.
