Building 101: So you want to build a sleep out...

Kylie Klein Nixon Reporter from Homed

When I heard there would be changes to the consent rules around building sleep outs, I was excited. I've always wanted a tea house in my back yard... a garden room where I can do a bit of potting, maybe read a book, or just cool off in the shade.

Turns out it's not quite as simple as a trip to the hardware store to burn a hole in your credit card. If you're thinking of putting something up on your property, check in here first:

Why Won’t Council Protect Kids from Dangerous Traffic at Raumati?

Alan Tristram is asking Councillors and Mayor Gurunathan why they appear to be doing nothing to protect young children from traffic dangers at Raumati Beach.

He says: “The situation is so bad I’m writing this open letter to elected officials asking why they have done nothing effective to protect young children from the chaotic traffic.

“Mayor and Councillors, you seem to devote a massive amount of time to prestige projects, and climate action, but nothing to provide basic protection for our young children.

“Last year we arranged for Cr Janet Holborow to see for herself the dangers faced by children from two schools, and three early learning centres, as they make their way to lessons.

Cr Bernie Randall has also taken an interest since his election.

But eight months after we raised the issue nothing effective has been done.
