Petone Library to be pulled down

Was at Petone Library for a HCC Heritage Policy Review [for we the peoples input].
In discussion about the Heritage of the HUTT itself, mainly Petone. I was

stunned to learn that Petone Library [which I use often] is in the throws of plans to pull it down and for Urban Plus [HCC owned] to build a large residential 4 story complex, taking out the trees and carpark.
This followed on with 'near Pak n Save Petone' a 6 story Urban plus residential housing area to be built.
Happy to hear the Hutt is being proactive with housing for those who need it.....BUT this information had not been heard of by myself.
The saga of Oddfellows Hall Petone being pulled down, Heritage building but slipped thru the cracks.
10 people joined us, and great discussion....WHAT does a Heritage Policy contain...How old is a property, church, sport venue, archaeology, cemetery, architect design, river, the era, whats RMA, Historic Buildings state?
Go online to the city council District plan.

THAT is the question....what is the answer.
MOST interesting and informative.
Next week Wainuiomata is holding a session.

Kiss a lot

Ann from Relationship Wellbeing Specialist

There’s one simple way to keep things passionate in your relationship—kiss.
Kiss a lot.
Kiss often.
Kiss each time you leave each other, and each time you see each other again after being apart.
When you do, you tell each other that you matter. And you choose each other all over again.

My best friend Tania will be walking the Wainui hill on 15/02/19 for 24 hours to raise money.

Tania's goal in 2018 was to walk the Wainui hill everyday for the whole year. She completed that goal and walked the hill 528 times (the equivalent to 3500 km which is twice the length of the country) despite facing tough barriers throughout 2018.

Tania has successfully lost 75kg over the past decade through exercise and diet, while also obtaining a diploma in exercise science. 2018 was her 10th year going to the gym and keeping the weight off.

One of her goals is to have an operation to remove the excess skin she has from the weight she has lost. There is currently no government funding for operations like this.

Tania is going to walk the Wainui hill for 24 hours to raise money for the operation. The only way she can have a break is if someone else is walking the hill in her place.

If you would like to support Tania on her 24 hour walkathon you can contact her on 022 586 7479 or if you would like to contribute you can visit: givealittle.co.nz...
