Have your say

Porirua City Council

Have your say on the Titahi Bay US Marines Hall.

We are seeking public input into how the hall should be memorialised, if the decision is taken to demolish it.

The Marines Hall in Titahi Bay has stood at the heart of the community for over 75 years and has a special place in the memories of local whānau.

How can you have your say? The online survey is the easiest way to have your say and can be found on the Marines Hall memorial project page on the Council’s website.

Drop-in sessions – you can share your ideas in person at one of our drop-in sessions outside the hall (if it’s raining, held in the Titahi Bay library).

There are two dates:

• Wednesday 23 September, 3-5pm
• Saturday 26 September, 1.30-3.30pm.

If a survey is not for you, share your thoughts or story with us via parksfeedback@poriruacity.govt.nz The feedback collected will be available to the community towards the end of the year and you can share your stories at the Marines Hall Memorial Project page on the Council’s website.

New World Khandallah parking warning and appeal to nearby business owners

Darrell from Paremata

For very valid reasons (local commuters abuse) the New World has allowed the draconian Smartcomply company to police their carpark on their behalf.
Smartcomply will hit you with an $85 'fine' if you stay one second beyond the 60 minutes allowed.
Can I appeal to all nearby business's (especially eateries) to display a clearly visible "ARE YOU PARKED IN THE NEW WORD CARPARK' notice so customers can be warned about the possibility of an unpleasant post dining experience surprise.
A local eatery, and New World itself, could lose future custom due Smartcomply's excessive actions, as is likely our case.
Indeed I would urge any business local to a Smartcomply operation to implement a "ARE YOU PARKED IN ..........." notice if they wanted to avoid a lose in trade.
Here is the link to their Terms and Conditions that all entrants to a carpark under their control are expected to notice and read.
