Changes to the KRRA Constitution

We are required by the government to re-register the KRRA under the new Incorporated Societies Act 2022. The new Act requires we make a number of changes to our existing Constitution.

On the 1st October, via online voting, we have achieved the required target of 65% of our members voting in favour of the new constitution. Thanks to all of you for responding so well and for your support of your community.

In line with our constitution we need to ratify this approval at a Special General Meeting of the KRRA. This will be held at the Kuaotunu Hall on November 25th at 1pm. We will also be giving an update on a number of ongoing projects and issues in the community.

Please feel free to come along, find out whats happening and raise questions on whats happening in your community.
