The rates rise is for 2021/2022, the first year of budget plans in the council 's Draft Long Term Plan (LTP) 2021-2031.
"This is the most important thing that we do in a triennium (current election term). We set a long term plan for the future direction for the next 10 years," Sheryl Mai, Whangārei Mayor said at WDC's first meeting of the year on Thursday

The prime minister and her Māori ministers have spent the morning speaking to iwi leaders and visiting locals in Whangārei ahead of Waitangi Day.
Willie Jackson told a crowd at the Hihiaua Cultural Centre that Labour was the only Pākehā government willing to make New Zealand history a core subject in schools.
"We have got kaupapa through that you would never have thought a Pākehā government would have got through," he said.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and ministers pick up paintbrushes for fundraiser

Minister Kiri Allan started strong but overcommitted, when given some 20 minutes to create an artwork in Whangārei.
Ardern quickly painted the background of a small canvas black – a form she has displayed at priorart fundraising efforts.
Her message, above a signature which she admitted was messy: “ABC 5x5 Hītori”.
It was meant to convey what is learnt at school, hītori meaning history.

Minister Kelvin Davis painted his hand Labour red for his artwork, which was largely unintelligible thanks to Minister Willie Jackson’s contribution.
Sepuloni appeared to agonise over her larger canvas, taking time to draft her vision on a piece of paper. It was a window, each of the four panes filled with a message to retort to Banks’ comments.
