New name and boundaries proposed for Rodney electorate

Caroline Williams Reporter from Rodney Times

Hi neighbours. A new electorate named Flat Bush has been proposed for the south Auckland area, which would have a domino effect for the north Auckland electorates (Northland, Rodney, Upper Harbour and Whangarei), which are currently 38 per cent over quota limit. The excess population would move south through the Auckland isthmus to populate the new electorate and see the Rodney electorate reconfigured to include the Whangaparāoa and Dairy Flat areas, with Warkworth moved into the Helensville electorate. With this change, the Rodney electorate would require a name change, for which Whangaparāoa has been proposed.
What do you think about the proposed changes? Do you think Whangaparāoa is an appropriate name for the would-be-former Rodney electorate? Or do you have another suggestion? Let us know in the comments.
