Reclaim the Hardwick Smith Lounge in Belmont Domain for community use
"🚨 We need YOUR Support to reclaim the Lounge! 🚨
The Hardwick-Smith Lounge is at risk of being lost forever, and without community support, we won’t be able to bring it back. The Council has no funds to restore it, so it’s up to us to reclaim and restore this space for Belmont and Lower Hutt!
It only takes 2 minutes to make a real difference. Sign the petition now and show that our community is ready to stand together.
👉 Sign the petition: change.org...
👉 Join us at the public meeting on October 23rd at 7:30 PM at the Kelson Community Centre, 5A timaru Grove, Kelson
We need YOUR voice to reclaim this vital community space. Let’s unite and show that we are strong, committed, and ready to act!
Together, we can reclaim the Hardwick-Smith Lounge! Let’s show what community power can achieve! 💪"

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
