Our Board & Staff

Tasman District Council nominates a representative from the local Community Board (or a councillor), and an Iwi representative is appointed by Manawhenua ki Mohua.

Board Members for 2025-26 Frank Susko (Chairman), Catherine Olsen (Secretary), Noel Baigent, Mike Hurst, Cherie Byrne (Manawhenua ki Mohua Representative) and Grant Knowles (Golden Bay Community Board Representative)
