Mayor of Waitakere


The Mayor of Waitakere was the head of the former municipal government of Waitakere City, New Zealand, and presided over the Waitakere City Council. The city was New Zealand's fifth largest, and was part of the Auckland region. There were only two mayors of Waitakere City: Assid Corban, 1989–92; and Bob Harvey, 1992–2010. On 1 November 2010, Waitakere City became a part of the Auckland Council.

The elected council consisted of the mayor and 14 councillors representing the four wards:

The mayor was directly elected across the whole city council area using a First Past the Post electoral system. Each electoral term was for three years. The last mayor was Bob Harvey.
