Talk with the mayor of all
Auckland
Auckland Mayor Len Brown wants to hear Aucklanders’ hopes, dreams and concerns about their community in the first of a series of regular events allowing people to get face to face with their mayor.
The mayor is inviting Aucklanders to drop by Aotea Square any time between 12.30pm and 1.30pm on Thursday 11 November for his first Mayor in the Chair session.
In these sessions, Aucklanders are welcome to pull up a chair and ask the mayor a question or share their thoughts with him.
“I’m going to get out into the villages of Auckland, and touch base with the locals. I want to get a good, first-hand feel for the people and the issues of different communities, in their own words.”
The mayor initiated the Mayor in the Chair sessions in Manukau City, and is keen to extend the concept throughout the region.
