It’s a mouthful but we are referred to as MERRA in everyday conversation. Formed in 1968 and known then as Mahurangi Heads Residents and Ratepayers Association, it changed its name dropping ‘heads’ in favour of ‘east’ in 2005 when it also formally adopted its rules and constitution.

MERRA advocates for and promotes the interests of it members and by extension the entire Scotts Landing and its surrounding area.

 Today, MERRA engages in a variety of activities which include encouraging social interaction between residents, animal and plant pest control, neighbourhood support and emergency community response, environmental care, liaison with local Government and a host of other minor work.

Membership to MERRA is $20 per annum per property and covers all persons living there. All property owners are encouraged to belong to MERRA so we may represent as many as possible when speaking on behalf of the community.
