It means facilities such as Moana Pool and Dunedin libraries will again be open to both vaccinated and unvaccinated people.
Council chief executive Sandy Graham said the decision came after new risk assessments that followed the Government’s announcement on March 23 it would lift most vaccine mandates from next week.
“We haven’t made these changes lightly and the ongoing health and safety of staff and our community has been front and centre in our thinking," Ms Graham said.
“We are confident high vaccination rates mean we’re now well prepared for this next step in the Covid-19 response.”
The policy requiring vaccine passes was introduced at the start of December last year for an initial period of three months and then continued while under review.
People entering council buildings would still have to wear masks, Ms Graham said.
Council meetings would continue to be held online for now.
