The Western Bay of Plenty District is made up of five wards, Waihi Beach, Katikati, Kaimai, Te Puke and Maketu.
Regional government is provided by Environment Bay of Plenty, with two Regional Councillors representing the Western Bay of Plenty District.
The number of elected representatives for each ward and/or a community board area is dependent on the number of resident electors within a particular ward and/or community board boundary.
The larger the number of eligible electors in a ward and/or community board – the larger the number of elected representatives.
