North Shore City has six community boards, made up of elected representatives who provide a link between you and your council.
The boards meet regularly and listen to local people with local issues, advise and make recommendations to the council, and they help provide feedback to the council on major projects.
The North Shore has community boards in Albany, Birkenhead-Northcote, Devonport, East Coast Bays, Glenfield and Takapuna.
