Becoming NZ’s first Green Star rated pool

Hutt City Council

On track to open late 2024, the design of the new Naenae Pool and Fitness Centre has been strongly influenced by feedback from the community.

With a 50m Olympic pool, two Zoom tubes, leisure pool, poolside birthday party room, fitness centre and gym, the new centre will be a fit-for-purpose aquatic facility and social precinct that meets our communities’ needs now and into the future.

As part of our commitment to being carbon-zero by 2050, the new pool will be the first pool in Aotearoa New Zealand to have a Green Star rating.

NZ councils and social media. 🤔🤔🤔

Mike from Alicetown

My local council uses Facebook to disseminate a lot of information. For instance, it screens council meetings live on the platform.
Given that Facebook is based offshore and pays no tax in AoNZ should councils be using it?
Shouldn't all council information come from the council's own website? Why do we have to search multiple platforms to find information that should just be in one place?

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
