Introducing KRRA...
The Kuaotunu Residents and Ratepayers Association Inc (KRRA) is an incorporated society that aims to provide a forum for discussion on local issues, and to represent and promote the views and aspirations of Kuaotunu residents and ratepayers to all relevant authorities.
To achieve this we work closely with the Thames-Coromandel District Council (TCDC), and the Mercury Bay Community Board, with regards to environment and planning matters that affect Kuaotunu. Where necessary we make non-partisan submissions to local bodies on legislation that affects Kuaotunu.
Many local bodies such as the Council prefer to deal with a representative body like KRRA rather than individual residents and ratepayers. When issues arise that affect the Kuaotunu community, KRRA will consult with its members and represent the consensus opinion.
Membership of KRRA is open to anyone who lives, or who owns property, in the general area of Kuaotunu (including Ring's Beach, but excluding Matarangi and Otama/Opito Bay who have their own representation).
The membership year runs from 1 April to 31 March. Membership fees for the new financial year are due in April and must be made before 30 June in order to retain your membership status.

The Committee
The committee is elected at the annual AGM held in April, and meets approximately every 6 weeks on a Thursday evening. The date and location of each upcoming committee meeting is advertised on the home page of this website, and also on the community calendar.
All members of the community are welcome to attend KRRA committee meetings. The first 10 minutes are set aside for public input.
