Originally set up as a podcast, and later as a blog, Local Aotearoa focuses on issues and news in New Zealand’s local government sector.

Unfortunately due to other commitments, Local Aotearoa is going through a quiet phase, though stories will occasionally be added as time permits.

Local Aotearoa is run by former Kāpiti Coast District councillor Gwynn Compton.
