Requested Information:MDC funding for Settlers Day
Response:
​The Kimbolton Community Committee made an application to the Manawatū District Council’s community event fund, seeking a contribution towards traffic management, PA system, and marketing.
The event was described as a range of old-style activities, a top town competition, a grand parade of cars and a children’s boat race that is free to the public.
Council approved $1000 funding. The application did indicate that the event was to be held on the 6th of February.

As we understand, representatives from Ngāti Kauwhata and the Kimbolton Community Committee have met and have agreed a way forward together.
