Hutt City Council is undergoing a restructure, which has resulted in 56 roles being dis-established and 11 redundancies.
Some of those roles were already vacant, meaning 37 staff are directly affected.
But the new structure includes 71 reconfigured roles, of which 15 are brand new ones.
Council chief executive Jo Miller said there needed to be the appropriate resource to match the council s priorities.
