Reminder: Northern Upper Hutt Earthquake Drill - 14 March
Kia ora whanau - A reminder that WREMO is having an earthquake drill at Plateau School to practise how we as a community would respond and use the Community Hub at Plateau School. Be great to have a wide range to people there to learn and help.... and have some fun too.
Check out the facebook event: www.facebook.com...
Also looking for some folk interested in filling in the blanks of our Te Marua Community response plan (what would be available to us in our local area in the event of an emergency eg- communications, water, venues, facilities, bbqs, 4X4 vehicles etc) Please get in touch with me in the comments below (Tania Jones) and I'll arrange a group coffee meeting, won't be arduous... and only a one-off :-)
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
