Manty of you will be familiar with our ongoing commentary about he three landfills located to the south of Brooklyn - between Brooklyn and Owhiro Bay. Two are privately run on (mostly) council (ie ratepayer) land. But the main one is the WCC run and managed Careys Gully/Southern Landfill. It resource consent runs out in 2025 and the council is going to the community seeking guidance and clarity here. There are five options ranging from: simply continuing with it to closing the landfill completely. I suspect most will reluctantly want the landfill to continue but now is an ideal opportunity to advocate for tighter operational controls - fitting with what we do in the twenty first century - and then look to the other two landfills where there Resource Consents will be coming up for review and renewal in the next year or so.

"Artemis (or Arty) has done an amazing job at settling in. She's super curious and interested in everything going on - I've never had a cat who watches TV before and attacks it! She especially loves it when my boyfriend plays Call of Duty, she gets very involved. She also loves to play a lot and she's not fussy at all with toys.
This week especially she's started vocalising a with me a lot, she chirps and brrrrs away at me while purring up a storm. She's so cuddly! She loves to be carried all over the house and snuggle up on my shoulders. At night after she's finished her zoomies, she likes to sneak in under the blankets to be the little spoon. We're very happy with her, and she seems to be very happy in her new home too."

As Lynette, a resident at Edmund Hilary village, says “A lot of people still believe that you're going to a rest home. They don't know the concept of a retirement village. You go there, it's beautiful. You've got facilities. You've got activities. And you don't stop living.”
Retirement is a chapter of life that’s filled with possibility. Choose the lifestyle you want to live and proudly embrace every opportunity. It’s what Ryman residents do.

"A few bird shots taken over the last couple of days! The tuis do feature very heavily in the shots, as they are such wonderful birds to capture, but I have also managed to find redpoles pecking on the grass at school and a lone Rosella! I also spotted a hedge sparrow peering out from the safe haven of a bush. The waxeyes were having a feast in the school compost bin.
Our resident gammy legged blackbird entertained me as he played with his food, a juicy fat worm, then he flew onto the fence to sing to me! He was with us this time last year and we were so thrilled that he came back again this year!"
