Ashburton’s new council has been sworn in, with new mayor Donna Favel saying it is an honour to serve.
Council chief executive Andrew Dalziel ran the meeting until Mrs Favel and the councillors were sworn in before a packed public gallery in the temporary Ashburton council chamber in the old County Council building.
Mrs Favel said it was a great team and “I’m confident we will achieve the outcomes we desire”.
She said councillors came from a range of backgrounds and it was the time to work together.
