This is a notice to inform you all that the Balmoral Fire Station is closed today due to a lack of staff. This is currently a nation wide issue caused by FENZ not recruiting enough staff.
Some firefighters are working in excess of 100 hours a week to keep fire appliances available, but it is a continuous struggle to protect you the public and also spend time with family.
Fire and Emergency NZ do not pay enough to attract new staff and with the cost of living increasing, the staff we do have are either moving out of Auckland, or leaving the job all together.
Please support us by following www.firecrisis.nz...... for more information.

Here's Don's June report for us with a positive intro, that property crime was down in June compared to May. Then into the rest of the newsletter..... stolen number plates( 86 in Auckland - 9 of which were taken in Onehunga) with a free Onehunga Community Patrol day on the 28th of July from 10 - 2 pm at Countdown Greenlane where, the Volunteers will secure your plates for you with anti-tamperproof screws which slow the criminals down.
If anyone has a few hours free, the Onehunga Community Patrol always needs Volunteers. I did this for a few years at Mangere Bridge, it's simple and helpful to the community.
There's lots of other helpful information on how to keep your home and possessions safer.
Regards
Colleen
Give children lots of opportunities to read different things in their own time - it doesn’t just have to be books. There’s fiction, non-fiction, poetry, comics, magazines, recipes, and much more.

Hi
It is not too late.
You can sign the petition to stop the sale next year.
See the reasons below we should keep this valuable public amenity:

IT IS 'APPROVED FOR SALE', BUT IT'S NOT TOO LATE.
We rely on this carpark for: Convenient & reasonably priced parking, in the Viaduct/Ferry area
COMMUTERS - rely on this to access their work, when they need to bring a car, to drive to after work events, or cart large items
MOTHERS WITH BABIES/CHILDREN need it to go to the city easily, for appointments, without costing alot.
APARTMENT DWELLERS with no carpark, use this for reasonable priced long-term parking.
WAIHEKE DAY VISITORS & RESIDENTS rely on this carpark to be able to park on the mainland for a reasonable cost.
OTHER FERRIES - This will affect the numbers of people using the ferries to the North Shore, and other places- may as well drive, if you incur a high cost to leave your car in the CBD.
NO REGULAR CONVENIENT WIDESPREAD UNDERGROUND NETWORK/PUBLIC TRANSPORT YET IN AUCKLAND - (in any practical sense) - and so it is too soon to sell this Public Facility. e.g. We can't get 2 buses to get from Botany to the city for dinner at the viaduct or to go to work
VIADUCT / COMMERCIAL BAY BUSINESSES will be badly affected. Currently access from Downtown Carpark is under cover/sheltered. Why pay high parking costs, and walk far in high-heels, in the rain, when we can dine elsewhere, with parking outside?
QUEEN STREET/DOWNTOWN businesses will suffer, for the same reason. . . . . One more nail in the coffin '-(
COMPANIES WILL FIND IT HARDER TO GET WORKERS for downtown offices.
COUNCIL RESPONSE:
they have approved the sale of the Downtown Carpark
they will include a BUS facility and mobility parking
there are other parking capacity in the 'immediate area' at AT's Fanshawe Street (a long walk to the viaduct!)
and Victoria Street Carpark. (a VERY long walk to the viaduct) Also, when I last applied for an Apartment carpark it was FULL!
However council say they are both 'under-utilised'
Also they say there are various privately owned parking facilities. (Yes, at double the cost, or more!)

Preventive care starts with fluoride in drinking water at an optimal level of 2 ppm. Like anything, excess is bad, so we trust our Health Department and Ministry responsible for drinking water, NOT to slip the rug out from under our feet as has happened in Wellington.
-
Fluoride in drinking water changes weak and soluble dentine and enamel into acid resistant dentine & enamel. Hydroxyapatite changes to Fluorapatite - at a molecular level, making teeth resistant to decay. Fluoride applications and toothpastes are poor substitutes for fluoride in drinking water - specially in children.
-
As ratepayers, we trust those elected to positions of authority to be transparent and clearly on our side, not running on their own agenda. Even with water fluoridation, excess sugar consumption will damage teeth. Public Health starts with excellent Preventive Dental Care.

I was interviewed a few days ago to discuss the Wellington fluoridation debacle. Some snippets are covered in the News Hub and TV3 article.

Because fewer responsibilities mean that you can live on your own terms. It’s one of the ways we’re pioneering retirement living – so you can embrace life and blaze a new trail in retirement.
