Water quality.. Tamatea

Jo and Jarrod from Tamatea

How many people are willing to cancel and refuse to pay their proportion of the rates to do with water. My charge is $200 per annum. I am wanting to start the ball rolling and if we all do it, I am sure we will get action. I have finally had a gutsful. This morning my water is actually black, have done everything the council has asked of me. I have all my emails and paperwork over the past two and a half years, I have all the councils replies and pathetic responses, the excuses, you name it, I have it.

I am ready to go into battle with all and whoever I come across .

This is utter B&**SH@T from the Napier city council, and they have the gall to tell me my rates are rising this year by 6.4% this year, just after last year they rose from $1706 to $2050.

Join in and refuse to pay your water contribution on your rates bill everyone.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?

Paula from Onekawa

Hi does anyone have a garden incinerator they no longer need or would like to sell/give away? I need to burn some accounts/documents - or if anyone has any idea how to get rid of them apart from public recycling let me know - Thanks
