Wairoa District Council is a local government authority serving the Wairoa District in the Hawke's Bay region of New Zealand. It operates to enable local decision-making that supports the social, economic, environmental and cultural well-being of residents and visitors, both now and in the future. The council represents the district and provides local services to support the community. Its primary constituents are residents and visitors who rely on the council for governance, services and community programs that shape everyday life in the district. In February 2026, the council group launched an online tool designed to help people identify funding opportunities. Recent leadership changes include the appointment of a new Chief Executive in May 2025.
