Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox election Шаблон:Politics of New Zealand The 2016 New Zealand local elections were triennial local elections to select local government officials and District Health Board members. Under section 10 of the Local Electoral Act 2001, a "general election of members of every local authority or community board must be held on the second Saturday in October in every third year" from the date the Act came into effect in 2001, meaning 8 October 2016.[1]
Electoral systems
The local elections were held using postal ballots. Most city and district councils and all but one regional council used the first-past-the-post (FPP) voting system, with the exception of the following six city and district councils that use the single transferable vote (STV) voting system:[2]
- Dunedin City Council
- Kāpiti Coast District Council
- Marlborough District Council
- Palmerston North City Council
- Porirua City Council
- Wellington City Council
The Wellington Regional Council was the sole regional council to use the STV system.
Environment Canterbury was under statutory management and no elections were held.[3] Statutory management in Kaipara District ended and it held its first elections since 2010.[4] All District Health Boards used the STV system.[2]
