Have your say
Have your say on the Titahi Bay US Marines Hall.
We are seeking public input into how the hall should be memorialised, if the decision is taken to demolish it.
The Marines Hall in Titahi Bay has stood at the heart of the community for over 75 years and has a special place in the memories of local whānau.
How can you have your say? The online survey is the easiest way to have your say and can be found on the Marines Hall memorial project page on the Council’s website.
Drop-in sessions – you can share your ideas in person at one of our drop-in sessions outside the hall (if it’s raining, held in the Titahi Bay library).
There are two dates:
• Wednesday 23 September, 3-5pm
• Saturday 26 September, 1.30-3.30pm.
If a survey is not for you, share your thoughts or story with us via parksfeedback@poriruacity.govt.nz The feedback collected will be available to the community towards the end of the year and you can share your stories at the Marines Hall Memorial Project page on the Council’s website.

Fireworks
People keep fireworks because they are only legally available for purchase during a 4-day period each year, leading to stockpiling.
Kmart duvet recall
Kmart will be recalling a number of their Anko duvet sets.
What you need to know:
- The recall is involving Christmas-themed duvets: Mrs & Mrs Claus Reversible Queen Size Bed Quilt Cover Set and Christmas Elf Reversible Single Bed Quilt Cover Set
- A recall of the products began in Australia following health concerns from several families.
- One woman said she thought she was having a heart attack after using one of the products which smelt of diesel.
- One customer said she’d purchased the quilt covers and said they smelled like gas. Another mum said hers did not have that smell but claimed her son developed a rash that only went away when he stopped using the product.
- The product is no longer available for purchase on the Kmart website.
Regardless of whether you have experienced an issue, customers who have purchased this item may return the product to store for a refund.
