Kia Ora Manawatu-Wanganui Regional Council known better as Horizon's
Regional Council,

I would like to know several things in regards to Landlords voting who
live outside of Horizons Regional Council (Manawatu-Wanganui Regional
Council) voting electorate/wards boundaries please and thank you.

1) During just the last election 2022 how many votes were recorded in
Horizon's Regional Council Elections that LIVED outside of the city
boundaries/wards? (Not Special Votes).

2) Are those rental properties that are in trusts, whether family trusts
or business trusts included in the ability to vote in Horizon's RC
elections if they live outside of the city.

2A) If yes to (2), Are those who are considered beneficiaries and or
trustees also able to vote in Horizon's RC local body elections if they
live outside of the PNCC ward/s or electorate.

3) Does the above also apply to Business sites ie shops or stores,
factories buildings etc.

3) Does Horizon's RC have specific "rural" wards?

And finally please tell me the act/s of parliament and/or local council
act/s that allows for landlords who reside outside city ward boundaries to
vote in wards/electorates they don't reside in but own a property.

Thank you for your time I look forward to your prompt reply.
Yours faithfully, Nga Mihi
