Mount Pleasant, New Zealand

Mount Pleasant (Tauhinukorokio[3][failed verification]) is a coastal suburb of Christchurch, New Zealand.

The suburb is located on the northern flank of the mountain Tauhinukorokio/Mount Pleasant in the Port Hills.

A petition in September 1920, by 57 of the suburb's 66 ratepayers, asked for it to be included as a riding of the Heathcote County.

Whilst the mayor of Sumner, John Barr, submitted against the petition, it was granted and took effect on 1 April 1921.

[4] As a result of the 1989 local government reforms, Heathcote County was amalgamated with and became part of Christchurch City Council.
