Greater Wellington — Pre-election Reports

Every election the Chief Executive produces a pre-election report to communicate these key areas of opportunity and change, and to encourage people to give their voice to these issues by voting or standing for Council.

This Pre-election Report is written to promote discussion and informed debate in the lead up to the local government elections closing 11 October 2025.

We want you to know what we have planned across the Region and in your backyard. We hope this report helps you understand the decisions that need to be made.
