Waipā District Council (Māori: Te Kaunihera ā-Rohe o Waipa) [citation needed] is the territorial authority for the Waipā District of New Zealand. [ 1 ] The council consists of 14 elected members: the mayor of Waipā , Susan O'Regan , and 13 ward councillors.
The District was formed from Waipa County Council and its town boroughs in 1989. [5] The county boundaries have varied since five ridings were formed in Waipa county in 1876: Newcastle, Hamilton, Mangapiko North and South, [6] Rangiaowhia, [7] and Pukekura. [8] In 1902, it covered 282 sq mi (730 km 2) and had an additional riding, Tuhikaramea. [9]
It is the council seat of the Waipa District and serves as a service town for the farming communities which surround it. Te Awamutu is located some 30 kilometres (19 mi) south of Hamilton on State Highway 3 , one of the two main routes south from Auckland and Hamilton.

Before the 2023 census, the statistical area had a larger boundary, covering 55.23 km 2 (21.32 sq mi). [1] Using that boundary, Te Rahu had a population of 1,167 at the 2018 New Zealand census, an increase of 189 people (19.3%) since the 2013 census, and an increase of 261 people (28.8%) since the 2006 census.
In the 1890 electoral redistribution, Waipa was abolished and the vast majority of its area went to the Waikato electorate, which shifted west. [6] In the 1892 electoral redistribution, Waikato electorate moved east again and the Waipa electorate was re-created. For the first time, it extended as far north as the Firth of Thames. [7]
