Christchurch Council Mergers Survey | Christchurch News

Christchurch City Council is inviting residents to shape the future of local government through a new survey, exploring potential mergers with neighboring councils as part of a broader government initiative. Based on input from community leaders and stakeholders, three core principles—how we live and work, water connectivity, and regional scale—are guiding the discussion. Residents are asked to rank these priorities and explain their choices, as this feedback will directly influence the council’s official proposal due by August 4. With five potential merger models under consideration—and room for more—the mayor stresses the need for a long-term, region-wide solution. Don’t miss your chance to vote: the survey closes July 26.
