Two temporary raised crossings and a new footpath will soon provide improved connectivity in Dargaville, making it easier and safer for tamariki to walk, cycle and scoot to school.  

We are making changes to the system that Kaipara District Libraries uses for our library catalogue, customer records and other library services.

UPDATE - Dargaville Library closure dates confirmed

Commemorative ceremonies took place across Kaipara District on Wednesday in observance of ANZAC day.

Water restrictions have been lifted for properties on town supply in Dargaville and Baylys Beach.

I am writing this off the back of an engaging Dargaville business community event last week. My thanks to the DCDB for co-hosting this as part of our long term plan consultation. It was well attended by the Dargaville community and i enjoyed the interactions with plenty of questions and answers about our plans for the next three years. 

A new lead librarian and two assistant librarians are coming soon to Mangawhai! 

Kaipara District Council elected members adopted the Long Term Plan 2024 – 2027 consultation document in the council meeting on Wednesday, kickstarting the feedback period opening today.

Dargaville and Baylys Beach residents have responded to the call to preserve water under Level 3 water restrictions.

January saw our teams commence routine spraying rounds, pavement repairs are full steam ahead and preseals and reseals are underway across the district.

I have to say, February has been a bonanza of celebrations and I have been attending all I can.

Residents in Dargaville and Baylys Beach are urged to reduce water use after use has risen slightly since Level 3 water restrictions came into force on 12 February.
