Donna from Otaki District

KCDC have uploaded a video about the Housing Survey to YouTube (currently unlisted): youtu.be...

They will be using one or both of these videos over the coming weeks on our communications channels. We would love it if you would also share your video on social media and via your networks. We have included some key messaging below if it helps.

It’s time to Kōrero about housing.

Kāpiti is growing and so is the need for housing and greater support services.

Kāpiti Coast District Council is currently asking you to share your housing story and aspirations to help build a strong case for change. We need a stronger information base to support future discussions with Government and help Council, iwi, community organisations and other stakeholders to respond to current and emerging housing and social needs.

Your story counts, take the anonymous survey at haveyoursay.kapiticoast.govt.nz/housing or pick up a copy from your local library or Council service centre. Survey closes 5pm Friday 10 December.

Paper Shredding

James from Waikanae

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.

Heirloom Tomatoes, Zucchini and Cucumber Plants at Waikanae and Otaki Markets

Val from Otaki District

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.
