Forrest Hill Neighbourhood Society AGM
The Forrest Hill Neighbourhood Society will be holding our Annual General Meeting (AGM):
Time: 6-8pm
Date: Sunday 18th June 2023
Where:Sunnynook Community Centre 148 Sycamore Dr, Sunnynook (Opposite Countdown)
Light refreshments provided.
Residents of Kennedy Ave, Lyttelton Ave, Augusta Pl, Baltimore Pl, Wilmington Pl and Newport Pl are invited to attend the AGM. Residents of neighbouring streets Longwood Pl, Becroft Dr, Pendene Pl and Trevone Pl are invited to attend to learn about the covenant and how to get involved.
Some of the society successes this year include:
· Successful engagement with real estate agents to raise awareness of the covenant and, in a number of cases, correction of misleading advertising by agents.
· Attendance at auctions, whether in house or onsite, to ensure correct information is relayed to prospective purchasers.
· We have engaged with a property owner in Baltimore via our legal representation to prevent the development of multiple properties on the site, however despite assurances through their legal representation that only one dwelling will be built, we note continued developments on site that indicate an intent to breach the single-dwelling land covenant. We continue to monitor this situation.
· Responded to the Auckland Council zoning changes, both the initial feedback as well as the formal feedback opportunities. Further engagement is expected. It should be noted that Plan Change 78 is now on hold for one year.
It is only with the support of residents that we can continue to protect the aesthetic nature of our neighbourhood, through upholding the protective covenant that supports our beautiful suburb. We look forward to your attendance.
The more members we can get on board the better our chances of successfully challenging future developments.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
