Good to know where our rates are going........
Letter from council as follows:
Good afternoon Justine,
In response to your enquiry regarding track maintenance in Eureka Park where tracks through the redwoods and Greenwood Track are located, our contractors have outlined the following:
A leaf blower is used to
* Blow the debris out of the gutters to allow the water to drain correctly.
* Remove the debris and leaf litter off the track surface to allow the water to shed correctly and reduce the slipperiness/unevenness.
These methods of track maintenance are our standard operating procedures, and allow us to manage general water erosion wear and tear on our track surfaces

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