I was patient when receiving 2 yellow bins. I was patient when my black council bags got left behind after being told that it will be taken with my neighbors bins.
After putting out my brand spanking new red bin this morning, came home after the morning school run to this.
My low expectations just got lower. Not amused at all.

We are calling local businesses to register an expression of interest and we will alert you every time an opportunity is opened as part of the project.
By taking a social procurement approach we aim to maximise the local impact on every dollar we spend. We are keen to hear from businesses who are:
• committed to ongoing training opportunities (particularly for young people),
• pay the Living Wage
• committed to sustainability in their practices.

TradeMe has just 213 properties listed for sale in the whole of Lower Hutt – a city with a population of over 100,000. Seventy are in Wainuiomata, which contains only 16.4 per cent of Lower Hutt’s housing stock.
Wainuiomata is in the midst of a purple patch with new investment flooding in after years of stagnation. The Hutt City Council recently announced an $8.5 million upgrade of the Queen St shopping area, which follows the building of a new supermarket and shopping area, and a $50m retirement village.

The latest computer modelling techniques have been used to develop
draft flood hazard maps that depict stormwater and river flooding.
Now we need you to help finish the job. To make sure the finished
maps are as accurate as possible, we’d like you to tell us about flooding
events in your neighbourhoods and show us any photos you’ve got.
For further information on this project, go to: hutt.city/floodhazards
We’d also like your thoughts on other natural hazards like earthquakes, slips and erosion, and their impacts on our city.
We need this information as we prepare to draft a new district plan – the rule book for land use and development in Lower Hutt. And lastly, as part of the district plan review, we’d like to talk to you about residential development in the city, particularly your thoughts on what is a reasonable distance for people to walk from higher-density residential housing to train stations, shops and other facilities.

Is Nick Willis the best athlete that Lower Hutt has produced?
The 38 year-old went to Hutt Valley High School and still lists a Hutt running club as his home club.
Where do you rank Willis in terms of Lower Hutt sport? Does he outrank John Reid and Tana Umaga. What about Naomi Shaw?
