The Puketāpapa board, named after the Māori name for Mount Roskill, covers the suburbs of Hillsborough, Lynfield, Mount Roskill, Three Kings, Waikowhai, and Wesley.[2] The total population residing in the Puketāpapa Local Board area, as of June 2017, is 63000.[1]

The board is governed by six board members elected at-large. The first board members were elected by the nationwide local elections, which were held on Saturday 9 October 2010.
