We're counting down to the opening of the new Events Centre and refurbished Town Hall in July and thought we'd have a stroll through Lower Hutt's past civic buildings.
Here's Lower Hutt's Town Hall in 1914. The Council leased the building opposite Andrews Ave from 1908. The Town Hall building was damaged in a big earthquake in 1942 and in 1943 they moved into the old Post Office building on the corner of High Street and Laings Road. The current Town Hall building was opened in April 1957. #eventscentreopening
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.6% ... It is complicated
