People near coast from BAY OF ISLANDS to WHANGAREI including GREAT BARRIER ISLAND and from MATATA to TOLAGA BAY must MOVE IMMEDIATELY to nearest high ground, out of all tsunami evacuation zones, or as far inland as possible. Evacuate these areas even if you did not feel the earthquake. DO NOT WAIT. A damaging tsunami is possible.
People in all other areas who felt a LONG or STRONG earthquake should MOVE IMMEDIATELY to the nearest high ground, out of tsunami evacuation zones, or as far inland as possible.
This evacuation advice overrides the current COVID-19 Alert Level requirements. Do not stay at home. MOVE IMMEDIATELY. Stay 2 metres away from others if you can and if it is safe to do so.
People evacuating should walk, run or cycle if possible to reduce chance of getting stuck in traffic. Do not return until all-clear is given by Civil Defence.

Long shit story short! When Community Environment Volunteer Groups knock DOOR KNOCK offering to Kill Wild & Poisonous Weed Plants, on private or government housing PROPERTIES. That doesn't mean they can make a mess and leave their mess, where ever they want, whenever they want.
In conclusion and as a direct result, the Auckland based SMART Community Leader defended the actions of his Volunteer and suggested I move and hide the mess, their volunteer made, INSIDE MY Red Council Wheelie Bin!! (break council rubbish disposal laws)
A formal complaint has been documented and recorded against the Auckland based SMART Group Leader & Volunteers with NZ Kaiangaora Govt housing, with the intention to prevent community conflict and protect my household (hopefully households in general) from costly intrusive inconsiderate & illegal community service delivery methods, by Community Environment Service Delivery Groups, in future.
Hope this was helpful.

I started at age 6 in my music journey. My qualifications are NZ Suzuki (guitar & violin), violin grade 8 (distinction), ATCL (distinction) - a diploma in music performance.
When I teach, I use the best of both worlds of traditional & Suzuki teachings & it seems this combination works well. Last year, I was a school prefect. I teach at Half Moon Bay and inexpensive. My teachings can be in the weekends too.
