The area is sometimes referred to as "South Auckland", although this term did not possess official recognition and did not encompass areas like East Auckland, which was within the city boundary. It was a relatively young city, both in terms of legal status and large-scale settlement – though with residents in June 2010, it was the third largest in New Zealand and the fastest growing.〔(About Manukau ) (from the Manukau City Council website. Accessed 2008-06-21.)〕 In 2010 the entire Auckland Region was amalgamated under a single city authority, Auckland Council. The name ''Manukau'', from the Manukau Harbour west of the city, is of Māori origin, and means 'wading birds', although it has been suggested that the name of the harbour was also sometimes rendered as ''Mānuka'', meaning a marker post with which an early chief is said to have claimed the area.〔(Manukau – Naming the harbour ) (from Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand. Accessed 2008-06-22.)〕 ==History== Manukau City was formed by the amalgamation of Manukau County and Manurewa Borough in 1965. The city expanded in 1989 with New Zealand-wide reorganisation of local government, absorbing Papatoetoe City and Howick Borough, but losing some land to the newly formed Papakura District. On 1 November 2010 Manukau City Council was abolished and the governed area was amalgamated into the Manukau, Howick, Manurewa-Papakura, and Franklin wards of the new Auckland "super city". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Manukau City」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
