Council/About your council/Mayor and councillors

Mayor and councillors

We have one mayor and 10 councillors.

Crown Commission

On 9 February 2021, a Crown Commission appointed by the Minister of Local Government took over all of the council’s governance responsibilities, initially for a term until October 2022.

On 11 March 2022, the Minister of Local Government announced that Tauranga City Council would continue to have a crown appointed commission until July 2024.

The information below relates to governance of the council prior to the appointment of commissioners.

The mayor and councillors employ Council’s chief executive, who is their only employee.
