Porirua's mayor-elect, Anita Baker says the council can't get started on business until the contested seat is sorted.

Porirua is a city of socioeconomic extremes and climate threats, but at least it’s doing better on the rates-rise side than its neighbours. Why is Porirua the best place in the world? It’s Wellington, but without the bureaucrats and snobbery: there’s Pātaka Museum for your arts and culture fix, Porirua Harbour for your ocean views, and if it ever gets boring, Mana Island is only a hop and a skip away.
