Petition of Kenneth Mulholland: Appoint a Commission to replace the Wellington City Council
On behalf of so many Ratepayers and residents of our capital city we are inviting the Members of neighbourly to express their dissatisfaction with the governance of our Wellington City Council by signing Ken's petition.
Petition request: That the House of Representatives urge the Minister of Local Government to appoint a Commission to replace Wellington City Council.
Petition reason:
In my view, poor city planning has introduced new cycle lanes, removed hundreds of on-street car parks, and has adversely affected the free flow of transport and commerce with livelihoods destroyed. I believe the Council is both dysfunctional and incapable of properly managing the city finances and that ratepayers are now faced with unreasonable rate increases. Please sign this petition and let us all make change for a better Wellington.
Signatures are now being accepted - please follow the link below to sign:

Shocking anti-Māori propaganda posted in mailboxes
I am a Māori and today I found some shocking anti-Māori propaganda which had been obviously hand delivered into my mailbox. It was a call to action and as the neice of the late Moana Jackson and Syd Jackson, two intelligent and educated Māori leaders I am appalled to think that someone in my Island Bay neighbourhood is helping to spread these hateful messages.

Loose and swaying cable from the pole.
Due to strong winds, the cables on the utility poles have come loose and are swaying in the wind. Who should I report this to?
