Tauranga Business Chamber: Collaboration and unity is needed from those successful in election

The Tauranga Business Chamber says it wants unity from those successful in tomorrow's election.  

A mayor and nine councillors will be elected for the first time since commissioners were introduced in 2021.  

Chamber Chief Executive Matt Cowley says so far turnout has been lower than in 2019.  

He told Jack Tame there needs to be collaboration. 

“Good indication is whether they can have good discussions in the council meeting rooms, but they can sit down and enjoy a working lunch in the breakout room in-between meetings.” 

The polls close at midday, with results expected around 3:30pm.
