Rodney First is a local body ticket in Auckland, New Zealand. It formed in 2015 with a view to gaining a majority on the Rodney Local Board in the 2016 Auckland Council Elections.
The ticket was formed in 2015 by sitting Rodney Local Board members Beth Houlbrooke and Phelan Pirrie along with Cameron Brewer a retiring Councillor for Orakei. They were joined by athlete Allison Roe, Leigh based farmer Mike Francis and Helensville resident Brent Bailey in 2016 to front a six member team in the 2016 Auckland Council election.
The main goals Rodney First campaigned on were to improve transport and public transport infrastructure, provide a public pool in Warkworth and a multi-sports facility in Huapai, in addition to addressing the pressures of residential growth and environmental improvements to waterways and harbours.
Rodney First secured five positions on the nine member Rodney Local Board in October 2016 giving it a working majority. At the inaugural meeting of the Local Board Beth Houlbrooke was elected as Chair and Phelan Pirrie as Deputy Chair.
