We are excited to announce that the first liner in the Mt Albert sludge pipes has been successfully tested and is now operational – which means we’ve been able to take bring the sludge trucks operation to an end.
There will be the odd truck passing through over the coming week or so as the sludge tanks at Moa Point are cleared, but the 24/7 operation is over.
We want to thank the impacted residents for your patience and resilience in putting up with the trucks traveling past your houses every day through what has been an extraordinary time – possibly made more trying by the restrictions of Covid-19 and the fact everyone was at home more than usual.

We also want to acknowledge the efforts of the truck drivers who have worked tirelessly to keep sludge out of Cook Strait. And we’d like to thank the council and community leaders who have ensured community interests were kept foremost throughout a particularly difficult time for the city.

The second Mt Albert pipe lining operation is under way. Once complete, in three weeks or so, this will restore full redundancy in the event of failure. If there’s an emergency before then, we may need to re-start the trucking operation. However, lining the full length of this critical Mt Albert section of the sludge pipe minimises the risk of the pipe failing again until a longer term solution for sludge management is developed.

Habaneros for sale (like chillies but much hotter)

Hayden from Johnsonville

Hi everyone,
My little 12 year-old sister and I have some more freshly-picked, pesticide-free habaneros off our bush that we would like to sell to earn some pocket money.

Hi everyone,
My little 12 year-old sister and I have some more freshly-picked, pesticide-free habaneros off our bush that we would like to sell to earn some pocket money.

The $1 coin is for size reference, these habaneros are much bigger than chillies I have seen at the local supermarket retailing for $1:30 each (picture included indicating size relative to a $1 coin) and are really hot so you only need to cut up a small portion into food. Habaneros store well in the freezer so any leftover can be frozen until needed for up to a few months.

$1 each or 6 for $5.

I also have some that I have frozen that we would still like to sell at a rate of 2 for $1.50.

Covid-19 safety precautions:
It is recommended that you rinse produce thoroughly with hot water. See covid19.govt.nz....

Please PM me or email me at haydenthemonkey@gmail.com for more info. Thanks.

Have your say before it is too late on the new Wellington park policies

Luciane from Johnsonville

Have you seen the parking policy for Wellington? They will increase parking charges and the time that you can be charged (e.g. evenings), they will make you pay for parking where your kids play sports, near recreational activities, parks trails, etc. Have your say, read the policy before it is too … View moreHave you seen the parking policy for Wellington? They will increase parking charges and the time that you can be charged (e.g. evenings), they will make you pay for parking where your kids play sports, near recreational activities, parks trails, etc. Have your say, read the policy before it is too late. We will no longer have a vibrant CBD because people will shop and dine in Petone and LowerHutt.
They will even give themselves the authority to charge parking on streets in the suburbs like Tawa, Johnsonville, etc
