Council closes car access to Tītahi Bay beach
Hi Neighboulry folk, what do you think of the decision to block car access to Tītahi Bay beach. With ongoing reports of vehicles on the beach and concerns about the safety of staff responsible for enforcing the vehicle restrictions, the council is closing the gates from March 7. Keys will be available for boatshed owners and boaties.
Letters have been sent to boatshed owners, advising them of the changes and how to get a key if they don’t already have one..

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
