NPDC 10 Year Plan - Have your say!!!!
The Mayor has issued a challenge for people to submit on the Council's 10 year Plan. Apparently current submissions are no more than 20% of the last review submissions (i.e. 3 years ago). He has cheekily suggested that everybody must be happy while acknowledging this is probably not the case.
Come on then - have your say or are you happy to have the last 20 years of excessive rates increases repeated for the next 20 years. I also strongly suggest you air your major concerns or thoughts on Neighbourly for the greater good.
This can be done either on-line or there was a 2 page insert in the Daily News recently if you happened to retain.

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)
