What a difference a few years make.
Today we reveal the shakeup to the Rotorua Energy Charitable Trust after the election which saw four new faces join the board.
Only two of the existing trustees retained places on the six person trust - with Tamati Coffey, Stewart Edward, Merepeka Raukawa-Tait and Beatrice Yates joining serving trustees Sandra Kai-Fong and Jo-Anne La Grouw around the trust table.
It's a far cry from the last elections - or lack of them. In 2013, nobody stood against the existing trustees sothere was no need for an election.
This time around there was huge interest, with 44 people standing for the six available positions.
