✨ Electoral District Objections

Objection 556 W G Orbell & 24 other signatories
Objects to the proposed name of Otara.

Suggested solution To call the new electorate Papatoetoe as that is a name more closely associated with the general district.

Objection 557 W G Orbell & 24 other signatories
Objects to the provisional boundaries including most of the Papatoetoe Ward in Mangere electorate.

Suggested solution To include all of the Papatoetoe Ward in the proposed Otara electorate.
