*Survey alert*
This week we kicked off our month-long housing survey to help build a case for change.
While there’s plenty of anecdotal evidence of current and emerging housing and social needs in Kāpiti, we need a stronger information base to support future discussions with Government and help Council, iwi and others to respond.
The survey is part of a wider needs assessment to determine housing and social requirements, examine their nature and causes, and set priorities for future action. While Council is leading this important mahi, in partnership with iwi, the assessment will be a resource for the entire community as we work collaboratively to address the housing stress in Kāpiti.
Take the anoymous survey and learn more on the link below OR pick up a copy from your local library or Council service centre.
Survey closes 5pm Friday 10 December 2021.

Paper Shredding
I will be doing a lot of paper shredding over the next few weeks. Is there anybody who would like the shredded paper. I don't know if you can use it for hamsters and other pets, maybe it could go in your compost.
Just let me know if you want some.
