Adam van der Meer
Adam van der Meer is a resident of Pākōwhai who, along with his wife, experienced devastating losses during Cyclone Gabrielle in February 2023, leading to a significant drop in their land value. He has been vocal about the unfairness of continuing to pay rates based on pre-cyclone valuations, particularly after discovering erroneous charges on his rates bill, such as a swimming pool safety fee for a property that no longer exists.
