Development at 13 Cresta Ave and 96 Beach Haven Rd

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

You may have heard of concerns raised by the Beach Haven community at a large development of 81 apartments proposed to be built across 13 Cresta Ave and 96 Beach Haven Rd, which are currently zoned for one dwelling each. As well as a breach in the number of dwellings, there are also breaches to height rules for all buildings.

Local residents have organised a public meeting this Thursday 19 January from 7pm to 8:30pm at the Beach Haven Residents Hall: fb.me...

The proposal is open for public submissions until Friday 3 February. View and submit here: www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz...

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
