North Shore and the Supercity
Hi Neighbours. On November 1 it will be 10 years since the region's councils merged to become Auckland Council and I'm interested to hear your thoughts and reflections from the last decade.
Do you think the North Shore has benefited from the merge, or has it been left to fend for itself?
Has Auckland Council delivered projects to the area with the same enthusiasm as the North Shore City Council did?
Do you feel like you're a part of the Supercity?

16.3% ... It is complicated
