Kāpiti Coast district councillor wants to roll back old SH1 ‘confusing’ Māori names
Splitting the 18km stretch of former State Highway 1 into seven sections would avoid renumbering and renaming more than 1000 properties, the council said.
But a councillor wanted to rethink this approach and its proposed Māori names, which were suggested by the district’s three iwi and a historian to reflect local cultural and social history.

Heirloom Tomatoes, Zucchini and Cucumber Plants at Waikanae and Otaki Markets
Rain, wind and cold - just what these veggies don't like! However, better times are on the way and you can get a head start if you have a warm sheltered spot to nurture these seedings. They are coming along well in spite of the conditions.
We'll be at Waikanae tomorrow morning OR come see us at the massive Market and Camping Expo at Otaki on Sunday from 10.00am to 4.00pm. There will be a lot going on, plenty of entertainment and foodtrucks for sustenance, plus the usual array of quality stalls.
So came and check us out. Even if you are not ready to plant just yet, we can offer advice on varieties and cultivation. If you would like the full ;list of tomato varieties available, please PM me.
