Upper Hutt City Mayor
Wayne Guppy, JP
Welcome to the Upper Hutt City Council Website. If you are a local resident, work in Upper Hutt, NZ visitor, International visitor or maybe a student please check out the website and its links for all the services and information you need.
Our Council is moving forward in a positive spirit to ensure that we are going places. An often undervalued advantage of living and doing business in Upper Hutt is the lifestyle the city offers. We trust our website enables you to understand our 'lifestyle focus'.
Upper Hutt City is close to the capital of Wellington City but we boast being the region's outdoor paradise. For residents it means value for money housing that is likely to have more space. For families, Upper Hutt has many excellent pre-schools, primary and secondary schools.
Our website will enable an appreciation of our environment. We trust you can find your way around our city and the services you need.
Spreading more information about our city is a commitment of our Council.
