Please see attached reference maps covering the last five representation reviews held by the Manawatū District Council, over the years 2000, 2006, 2012, 2018 and 2022. LG_2339_Response_documents.zip
We unfortunately do not hold data prior to these years, but the Local Government Commission has kindly provided us with the reference maps for the Manawatū District following the 1989 local government amalgamations. Their maps from 1989 (attached to this response) show the below wards:
- Feilding
- Kairanga
- Kiwitea
- Pohangina
By 2000, Kiwitea and Pohangina had been combined to become the Kiwitea-Pohangina Ward. The attached maps show the ward progression since then, across 2006, 2012, 2018 and the most recent representation review in 2022.
The Local Government Commission has advised that Land Information New Zealand have the below maps on file:
