20 Reasons to decline a license to pollute

Michelle from Titahi Bay

Last night's hui was an eye-opener for the community, a meeting on a significant asset with significant impact on the environment, aquatic and human life, and not one Council representative there. Instead we had to listen to Council contractors justification of their spend on $1.7million … View moreLast night's hui was an eye-opener for the community, a meeting on a significant asset with significant impact on the environment, aquatic and human life, and not one Council representative there. Instead we had to listen to Council contractors justification of their spend on $1.7million thus far, on a license to pollute. What it feels like is they are spending all this time and money to create a consent document to justify what they are already doing (and increase doing) so they won't be penalised in the future.

Yep, it is not Friday but by coincidence both Andrew Gorrie and Rosa Marie visited Zealandia and photographed a stroppy tūī who did not want to share the sugar feeder.
Check out the photo of a kaka by Gorrie and the tūī by Marie. Which picture do your prefer?

Porirua City Council is out of the social housing game, voting to sell Moana Court with the condition the complex remains as social housing.
The flats complex on Te Pene Avenue, Tītahi Bay was built in 1974 to provide low-cost pensioner accommodation, it is now worth around $3.3 million.
There was much debate around the council table during the vote on the Long Term Plan on Thursday, which would set the focus and budget for council over the next 30 years.
Porirua social services recently cited housing as the “most urgent and pressing issue” facing families they worked with.

Friday Feathered Friend

Reporter Community News

This weeks contribution comes from Louise Thomas.

"Is that a little blue sky this afternoon? I feel like a mole rat emerging after a week in the burrow. This grey warbler/riroriro (Gerygone igata) seems pretty happy to see the sun. He's posing in a cedar tree for Christmas cards."
