The Mt Victoria Residents’ Association is an active advocate on behalf of our community, aiming to further the interests of our neighbourhood with local and central government. We’ve been doing this work for decades, promoting the needs of residents and opposing inappropriate development in our neighbourhood.
Meetings

Our first meeting this evening 5.30pm will traverse a plan for the rest of the year as we move to a new venue in March, we will have larger format meetings at Clyde Quay School Hall with a topic each time. What issues do you want to hear about?
2025
An emergency earthquake practice with WREMO was held in October 2025. Please let us know if you want to be involved in these preparedness activities in the future. It is important to be prepared and know what to do in an emergency.
Our 2025 AGM (annual general meeting) was on 4 September . We elected a new committee and voted on our new Association Rules – all residents are welcome. Please join up as a member so you can vote.
The Mayoral and Pukehinau Lambton Ward candidates meeting followed and there is a recording on our facebook page of what was said and promised.
The Greater Wellington regional council and Māori Ward candidates meeting was on 3 September at St Peter’s Church.
The things we care about
The MVRA is actively involved in promoting the interests of our community in a number of areas.
We make submissions on issues affecting Mt Victoria, such as proposals to have a Wellington super-city Council, Wellington City and Regional Councils’ draft long-term and annual plans, the Town Belt and transport plans. You’ll find copies on this website.
Check out submissions coming up –
Nothing just now, check back soon.
We actively monitor and make submissions to the Council on resource consent issues, particularly demolitions, that affect local residents, We have worked with the Council to put in place in the District Plan rules and guidelines to protect the heritage of our unique inner-city neighbourhood. This was in response to the wholesale destruction of Mt Victoria’s heritage through inappropriate development in the 1970s and 1980s.
We work with other groups – such as the Mt Victoria Historical Society and the Save the Basin Campaign – on issues of common concern.
