Poll: What should the council do with the modellers pond?
What do you think should be done with the pond? And what are your thoughts on the long search for a solution? Let us know in the comments!
The council has once again come back to the drawing board for clearing out the Modellers Pond, and is looking closely at partially filling in the pond with concrete. This will make the pond easier to clean so it can be used by modellers and won't be an eyesore.
Its function as a storm-water catchment is unaffected by weeds.

Renewing your licence at 75
🚙🛻🚗💨 You will need to renew your driver licence when you turn 75, 80, and every two years after that.
Waka Kotahi, the NZ Transport Agency will send you a driver licence renewal pack about eight weeks before your licence is due to expire.
You can also apply up to 6 months before you turn 75 by downloading the form yourself or requesting one from a driver licencing agent near you.
As part of the renewal, you will need to:
👉 get a medical check by your doctor showing that you are medically fit to drive and
👉 you may also have to do an on-road safety test (this depends on what your medical check results are).
Once your medical check certificate states that you are fit to drive, and you have done an on-road test if required, you can complete the application form and visit a driver licensing agent to apply in person. When you apply, your medical check results must not be older than 60 days.
