Get involved in planning the future of your city

Jon from Hutt City Council

How we'll protect cultural sites and historic heritage buildings is part of our district plan review.

We're now holding the first public engagement on the review. This is your chance to learn more and have your say on critical issues like how we'll house a growing population, manage natural hazards and sea level rise, protect indigenous biodiversity and a whole lot more.

We've got public open days, together with the 10 Year Plan team, tomorrow at the Walter Nash Centre, Taita and Petone Library, both at 6-8pm. This is your chance to learn more about the review and ask questions.

For more information, details on upcoming open days and how to have your say, go to the link below.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
