A great summer of events for our city
Auckland City Council organised, sponsored, supported or hosted many great events across our city this summer.

Regional governance - draft proposal
More detail about local involvement in local governance will be included in the council's draft submission to the Royal Commission on Auckland Governance.

Upgrading our historic Albert Park
Auckland's historic Albert Park is undergoing improvements to create a safer, more attractive environment for park users - while protecting the park's heritage and landscape.

Council libraries more popular than ever
Longer opening hours, free internet access and events are being credited with the increasing popularity of Auckland City Council libraries this summer - going against the trend of visitor numbers falling during the warmer months.

Wesley workshops
Young people are making the most of free workshops at the Wesley Community Centre to enhance their performance, music and design skills.

Cliff Road works
St Heliers' Cliff Road is being made safer for motorists, cyclists, pedestrians and residents to use.

Beautiful books
Don't miss the Central City Library's new exhibition, The Book as Art - Contemporary Artists and Fine Press Books.

Fun and excitement in the CBD
Expect the unexpected in Auckland's central city during Living Room 2008 - a programme of performances, installations and stories enlivening the CBD between now and 22 June.
