Between Thursday 26 June and Tuesday 29 July 2025, an election was held to fill six ratepayer positions on the Raupō Drainage Committee. A total of 201 valid voting documents were returned from within the Raupō Drainage District.

Originally established as the Raupō Drainage Board prior to the 1989 local government amalgamations, the Raupō Drainage Committee is the district’s longest-serving advisory body. It comprises both elected ratepayers and appointed elected members who collaborate to guide Kaipara District Council on drainage infrastructure and advocate for the interests of all Raupō ratepayers.

Nominations for the six ratepayer positions opened on Thursday 1 May and closed Friday 23 May 2025, receiving seven valid candidates. On 4 June, Council resolved to proceed with a postal election, confirming that the number of positions would remain consistent with previous terms (six in total).

Following the close of voting on Thursday 29 July, the preliminary result is below.
