Ways to address your concerns

Communications from Tauranga City Council

If your property has been identified as being affected by plan change 27 – flooding from intense rainfall, there are multiple ways to address your concerns:

1) Seek a review of the flooding risk that has been identified for your property.

Email city.plan@tauranga.govt.nz with the relevant property information and a waters engineer will review the situation. The maps provided at www.tauranga.govt.nz... are non-statutory and can be reviewed to take account of any property-specific information, outside of the plan change submission process.

2) Make a submission on the proposed plan change provisions.

To make a submission, submit your feedback online at www.tauranga.govt.nz... pick up a copy at council’s customer service centre or the city’s libraries and email it to city.plan@tauranga.govt.nz; or post it to Manager: City and Infrastructure Planning, Tauranga City Council, Freepost Authority Number 370, Private Bag 12022, Tauranga 3143. Submissions are open until 1 February 2021.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
