Te Puna Kōrero is the main committee that makes decisions about the city’s strategic direction and framework. It is made up of the Mayor, all councillors and the Council Kaumātua.
Today marked the 45th and final Te Puna Kōrero meeting of the triennium.
Prior to the meeting starting officially, the committee acknowledged the passing last week of Maxine Arnold, who served the community as a representative of Porirua City Council, Wellington Regional Council and the Porirua District Licensing Trust.
There were no speakers in the public forum.
