Tararua District Council has held its final meeting in the Council Chambers at the main building on Gordon Street, Dannevirke.
The Council Chambers will be moving to the Dannevirke Town Hall, aligning with the Council’s goal to save costs by optimising building use.
Tararua District Council owns 42 community buildings, including the Dannevirke Town Hall, which will now host the Council Chambers. The new Chambers will be located above the Town Hall in the Concert Chambers.
The Council Chamber on Gordon Street will be converted into a shared office space for staff currently working in the adjacent Tararua Business Hub on Denmark Street, which will no longer be needed.
The relocation coincides with the expiry of the lease of the building on Denmark Street, resulting in significant long-term savings for ratepayers. During the renovation period, Council meetings will be held at the Pahiatua Service Centre.
