Local Body Elections for Tauranga

The time has come for the local people needing to take back control of Tauranga. We have seen very good changes for Auckland, Christchurch and Rotorua.
We currently have an overpaid commissioner being directed by central government and we have no say. We have groups that are running riot making changes to the city with no consultation with the people. We see it with transport and one man there directing changes as he sees fit, just quotes from him all the time to what he wants. I see badly maintained parks were contractors are accountable to no one, rough work. I see red hats everywhere and no one seems to be working. I see pot holes. Why does public construction in Tauranga take so long, no one ever seems to be working, get on with it.
The people of Tauranga have had enough, and the best example is now Auckland which is going to have a total change. Can the people of Tauranga get out of there arm chairs and be accountable for there city, and not let government appointments take the salary.
The biggest change we need, is stop all the rubbish about Links Ave and get it re opened. It’s school holidays no one’s anywhere near that road and the other two roads are totally blocked. An unacceptable cost to motorists, why did we let it happen.
I am a cyclist and the mess and dangerous cycle way in Totara streets is just crazy. You are safer to stick to the road.
Tauranga we need a change. Let’s get the city moving and make it safer, it’s for everyone.

7 Spring Cleaning tasks to get started on

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean HQ

As we emerge from winter hibernation, thick coats are swapped for lighter jackets and it’s time to take stock for the season ahead.

With summer approaching, now’s the time to start thinking about getting some household upkeep out of the way early, so you’re not left slammed in the holiday season when there are a million other things to think about.

Soft furnishings: It’s easy to remember to wipe down hard surfaces, but the often-overlooked soft furnishings in our homes also need some TLC.

Keep an eye on the weather forecast and plan a sunny day to wash couch cushions, blankets, rugs or curtains that could be harbouring dust and bacteria.

Most of us wash the pillowcases on our beds, but the pillows themselves can harbor dust mites and fungi. It’s generally recommended you wash your pillow every two to six months – how to do so depends on its materials, so check the care label.

Clean your heat pump: You can clean your heat pump filter in less than 10 minutes using your vacuum cleaner and brush attachment. If you’re steadily blasting it throughout winter and summer, you should be cleaning it at least four times a year to ensure it’s working smoothly and to enhance its performance.
Windows and doors

After a damp winter, it pays to check the not-so-noticeable corners of your home. Windows and doors need regular maintenance to keep them in good working order and to avoid the likes of rot and corrosion. Look for signs such as chalky surfaces, condensation, mould growth, corroded fixings and blocked drain outlets – all indicate it’s time for a spring clean.

Take extra care not to damage the coating when cleaning coated or specialised glass – follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

The dos and don'ts of donating clothing: As the time comes to swap our winter clothes for more summery attire, sift through your wardrobe for items you haven’t worn in more than a year. Unless it’s a special-occasion piece, chances are you’re not going to be reaching for it any time soon.

Depending on the quality and value of the garments, you may want to sell them online or through a consignment store to earn some cash. If not, you can donate to your local op shop or clothing bin.
