Kaipara District continues to respond to the impacts of Cyclone Gabrielle.

A number of Kaipara homeowners have had their houses stickered in the aftermath of Cyclone Gabrielle.

A number of our staff have been diverted to emergency services relating to Cyclone Gabrielle. Council services will continue but some with limited capacity so please be patient. We will continue to keep you updated.

We asked Mangawhare resdents to evacuate again last night as a hydrology report highlighted the risks of flooding with huge run-off further up the river combining with high tide.

In the early hours of this morning Awakino River on the northern outskirts of Dargaville breached its banks. 

The recent weather events have caused a significant landslip behind the Mangawhai Heads Surf Club.

Improvements to the Poutō Point carpark area can progress in 2023 thanks to further funding from Kaipara District Council.

Fencing continues to progress in the Parore area and foundations for both Ahikiwi and Parore Bridges have been poured.

Summer holidays are fast approaching! During this time critical Council services continue, with some changes due to staff availability.

Sea, sand, and Aotearoa New Zealand’s rarest bird were all on hand for the opening of Kaipara’s newest loos.

When you’re out and about this summer remember that all Council land and Council buildings are smokefree and Vapefree.

New toilets at Alamar Crescent are ready for the public to use in time for Mangawhai’s busy summer season.
