PS 2023/26

We love where we live and we’re committed to making the Waikato even better, both for those here now and the generations to come.

You can see the progress we’re making in our 2022/23 Annual Report | Pūrongo-ā-Tau. This is our statement to the community about our finances and our service performance from 1 July to 30 June.

Councillors adopted the 2022/23 Annual Report and Annual Report Summary on 31 October 2023.

The report shows that Waikato Regional Council has weathered a storm of wild weather and high inflation over the past financial year to keep on course and deliver on commitments made in its long term plan.
