Given that Councillor Dawson has suggested that Rentals and indeed Tennancies are likely to be reviewed in an effort, not only to increase revenue, but will also be able to select 'suitable' tennants. Presumably their ongoing tennancy will be based on whether they answer in a way that is deemed 'suitable' to Council staff and elected representatives?

Some of the best scents in the garden are to be found in midwinter, usually from the likes of wintersweet and daphne.
But one highly fragrant and useful-for-so-many-purposes little shrub has slipped under the radar for far too long, says our Wairarapa columnist Kerry Carman.

The "guts" of the issue is outlined in the paragraph below-note the last three lines "If it aint broke-don't fix it"
The Council's Grants Sub-Committee recommended on 31 May that CAB be allocated funding of $103,500 "as a one-off six-month grant to provide an opportunity for WELCAB to redefine the way it delivers services and to be responsive to current and future trends in the way people access information and support."
Brian Dawson, Jill Day, Sara Freeman-Take a bow. Who is the muppet on/within the Council suggesting "mobile service units?. It is strongly suspected that you have no idea where CAB's are located, let alone visited one or spoken to the volunteers/community members who access their services.
The current offices are strategically based within communities enabling full access to everyone (especially those with disabilities) Easy to park and good public transport. How is this going to be achieved with "mobile/remote" service access?
The reason that CAB's are successful and have credibility, is that people have free/unfetted access. They are treated in a non-judgmental manner by "real people". In an "ideal world", CAB's would/should be closed if it were not for the fact that they (and other voluntary agencies) are doing the work of toxic, bureaucratic organisations/companies who alienate degrade, bully and demean vulnerable consumers (WINZ,ACC,Housing NZ, WCC).
If it were not for the existence and work of CAB's (and like agencies), the "cost" to the community would be prohibitive and the negative social outcomes potentially harmful/protraced. Ratepayers are "paying" for this service and it is clear that they are happy about the service delivery currently provided.
It is unconscionable that Council and staff officers have demonstrated a caviler, arrogant and professionally disrespectful attitude towards the Board,Senior Management and the volunteers of the Wellington CAB's over this critical issue.
Maybe the Council should start this conversation again. Go back to the beginning and this time be constructive,open, honest, transparent and work collaboratively with the CAB to clearly identify and resolve operational/funding matters that are of concern to you.
The Council has lost credibility and the respect of the community on their handling of this matter
I note with interest in the Dompost (8th June), that the Council have scrapped the "redevelopment of lower Tory street after wasting $0000. Not sure of the status of the $20,000 "rainbow pedestrian crossing. The community will doubtless be "delighted" that the Mayor/Council have approved the expenditure of $250,000 for the Matariki Festival which commences on 15th June Interesting take on financial priorities.--

The kitten season is finally slowing down so it's time to raise some much needed funds - we'll soon be taking in kittens that are being born to mums onto their 3rd or 4th litter this season, which means they'll likely be sick or take forever to grow - and it won't be long before the new kitten season starts!
To raise funds I'm running a $1 reserve auction fundraiser. We’d like loads of offers of products and services we can auction off on Trade Me to raise funds. If you own a business it’s a great way to get exposure for your business - and get warm fuzzies that you’re helping homeless kitties at the same time.
Please can you share this post with everyone you know, and ask every business you visit if they’d be happy to donate. Not only will they get nationwide exposure on Trade Me but we’ll post heaps on our page and tag the businesses. We’re hoping to have one major auction which is a weekend away with activities and meals - so if you know people who’d be keen to help please ask them 😻
Our $1 reserve auction fundraiser will go live on Sunday 1st July and all auctions will be live for 7 days. PM if you have any questions, and if you’d prefer to email details of what you can offer it’s feralnationnz@gmail.com.
Thanks heaps in advance for your support ❤️ Please follow us on Facebook www.facebook.com...

The water entering our stormwater network does not get treated, this means EVERYTHING flows directly into our streams, rivers, and eventually our ocean.
Put any ‘waste’, such as cigarette butts, dog poo, or rubbish, into a rubbish bin.
