Wellington City Council rates payments by internet banking
Be aware, Wellington ratepayers, the Wellington City Council website seems to indicate that 1.27% is added if you are paying for something online by internet banking. We've had (unexpectedly) a year's worth of Council rates to pay (the direct debit authority we had in place for paying our rates monthly was cancelled, unbeknown to us, in November 2022) and when I went to pay it by internet banking, the template indicated 1.27% would be added (which came to nearly $70). This was not charging to a credit card - just ordinary internet banking. Husband went in and payed at their offices this morning after unsuccessfully trying to pay at a post shop and the Johnsonville Hub yesterday. I would be interested to know if anyone else has been aware of something similar.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
