Poll: Will a rāhui over the Dome Valley proposed landfill site count without iwi co-operation?

Caroline Williams Reporter from Rodney Times

Dome Valley residents will gather at dawn on Saturday for a rāhui over the proposed landfill site. However, local iwi Ngati Manuhiri said the Fight The Tip Commitee doesn't have mana to place the rāhui, despite insight from an appointed Māori liaison. The iwi won't stop the rāhui going ahead, but said any rāhui placed over the land without Ngati Manuhiri co-operation would be "irrelevant" under Māori customary law. What do you think? Vote in our poll and let us know in the comments.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
