New over the pool flying fox to take flight at SoundSplash!

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

Get excited, Te Manu Rere is almost ready to make a splash! The new flying fox at Coastlands Aquatic Centre will be taking off at this weekend’s SoundSplash event, and open during the school holiday SPLASH sessions. 💦🦅

Dubbed Te Manu Rere, the flying fox was given a thorough workout by our Chief Executive Darren Edwards and Mayor Janet Holborow last week and found to be an excellent addition to our awesome pool facility.

Te Manu Rere was installed as part of our 10-year celebrations for the Coastlands Aquatic Centre. To find out more about the celebrations and SoundSplash, visit www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...

Poll: Is the increase in disability parking fines fair?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In October, the fine for parking in a designated mobility car park without a permit has jumped from $150 to $750—a 400% increase!

The goal is to keep these spaces open for those who truly need them. Do you think this big increase in the fine is fair? Share your thoughts below.

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.
