I take photos underwater, in New Zealand and overseas. If you visit my online shop on RedBubble you can see examples of my photos.
You or a friend, family member or neighbour can take a piece of the ocean with you every day - as a phone cover, tote bag or notebook. There's plenty to choose from.
Hi everyone,
Most people agree that the new bulk contracts that Council has let for mowing, litter, cleaning, maintenance are under-performing. Many parts of the contract are not being fulfilled and clearly Council is putting insufficient effort into ensuring we are getting value for money.

Most people agree that the new bulk contracts that Council has let for mowing, litter, cleaning, maintenance are under-performing. Many parts of the contract are not being fulfilled and clearly Council is putting insufficient effort into ensuring we are getting value for money.
Apart from moaning to each other what can we do?
We can log jobs to ensure there is visibility of work not done. I know we pay our rates for people to manage these contracts but this is not being done, at least in my neighborhood. Did you know you can ring 093010101 and log jobs that are not done? Yes you will wait in a lengthy queue (about 12 minutes average for me, longest 25minutes) and then will probably have to ring back to follow up but it is rewarding to finally get the Council to get the contractors to do the work that they are getting paid for (from our money) but not doing.
If you live in my area you may have noticed Moana Ave central traffic/ tree islands haven't been mown for about 3 months but were last week- that's because I rang 093010101 and told them. I go to Onehunga pool and gym and have several times logged a job to clean up the disgraceful litter and tree debris that collects out the front and makes it look third world. First round took 2 months to achieve but was done. The contract is 'outcome based so is not on a regularity but should never be untidy.
Support your community if you have time to make a phone call.
Cheers.

In March we felt the pain of losing 153 huge mature exotic trees, as well as memorial trees from our Mangere Maunga that people planted over the years. We were helpless to do anything to save the trees, and the birds lost their habitats. Just as some of us cried, the same thing is now happening for trees on Owairaka Mt Albert. In nine months TMA will have cut down almost 1000 mature healthy trees from four of Auckland's maunga. Fourteen maunga will lose such trees including One Tree Hill and Mt Eden.
There is a March on Mt Albert today, Sunday 10 Nov.
