Do your LTP submission at the Family Fun Day on Saturday
Grab the family, some sun block and a hat, and come have a chat about what we’ve got planned for Whangārei over the next 10 years.
Our Family Fun Day will have loads of fun activities for the kids including bouncy castles, mini cars, circus activities and more! We’ll have free coffees and sausages on the BBQ, and some awesome prizes up for grabs.
We’ll also be there to chat about our next Long Term Plan, which sets out Council's activities and priorities for the next ten years, and how we will pay for them. You’ll also be able to have your say on big issues, like climate change, our city centre, rates and future events and conference centre options for Whangārei.
Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
