Funding Workshops

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

We know navigating the many funds, grants and subsidies for community organisations can be tough, as they have slightly different eligibility criteria and ways of applying.

Our community funding workshops in Ōtaki on 1 September and Paraparaumu on 12 September will help you with the process and give you a chance to learn about the different funds available.

Make sure you register, because spots are limited – www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...

November's Weather

Murray from Paraparaumu

November’s temperatures in Kāpiti were average, but it was less sunny than usual. Rainfall was 33 percent above average, but most of the total 100mm fell over the first two weeks, with very dry conditions over the second two. Despite numerous, almost daily forecasts for possible showers nothing worthwhile arrived.

Our daily average maximum temperature of 19.3C was exactly the month’s longtime average and the same as last year, with the warmest day occurring on the last day of the month reaching 25C. As usual, our neighbours in eastern areas of central New Zealand were around a half degree warmer than us, but their overall mean temperatures were also the coldest, with Kāpiti and Lower Hutt being the warmest places..

Although our 13 equivalent days of sunshine were up two days on last November that was also cloudy, it was two fewer than average.

December should see most days reaching 20C, with an average of around 21.5C, and with our now heading into three weeks without worthwhile rain the dry conditions can be expected to continue.

Hotel

Mark from Paraparaumu Beach

I noticed a while back that the shipping container on the piece of land next to Club Vista had disappeared.

On that container was the advertising for a hotel that was to be built there.

Because the container & advertising has gone,does that mean the hotel is no longer happening ?
