The 3 Waters Reform is important!

Cathy McIntosh from Ōrākei Local Board

Orakei Local Board is concerned that the proposed 3 Waters Reform will hamper/delay the important water quality work for Hobson Bay.
Please get online and support the councils proposed changes to the bill ensuring more local governance BEFORE 19 December.

What the reform means for Auckland?
The relationship between Auckland Council and the new entity will be more distant than it currently is between council and Watercare.
Currently Watercare is accountable to Aucklanders, through the elected members on Auckland Council's Governing Body.
Auckland Council appoints Watercare’s board of directors, and the law requires Watercare to comply with Auckland Council’s long-term plans and strategic direction.
In addition, the councillors approve Watercare’s Statement of Intent. A Statement of Intent is an organisation’s work programme and priorities for the next three years.

Do you, or someone you know, need a caring house and cat sitter late April/mid May 2024?

Sheridan from Kohimarama

I’m booked for most of 2024 but I have a gap between the below dates:

AVAILABILITY
20 April 2024 to 14 May, 2024 (24 days)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you prefer the peace-of-mind of 'in-home' care, I can help with that. If you don't have any pets but prefer your home looks lived-in, I can help with that too.

ABOUT ME
I’m retiring late-June and am currently planning my van fit-out before heading off to finish hiking the rest of the great walks and Bikepacking wherever. I currently work full time as a Documentation Specialist for a software company Monday to Friday in the Auckland CBD and ride to work most days. I do gardening, mow lawns, pull weeds, clean pools…whatever is required to keep your home looking ‘loved and lived in’.

SUBURBS
Any homes located in or on the fringes of these suburbs: St Heliers, Mission Bay, Orakei, Glendowie, Remuera, Meadowbank, Kohimarama, St Johns, Newmarket, Parnell, Ponsonby, Herne Bay, Pt Chev.

Happy to pay for water, gas, power and internet usage.

Please reply to this post or just send me a personal message via Messenger or Facebook - I'm very easy to find.

Dejan from Orakei

Can anyone please help me identify this person. Full name would be magical. Perhaps knows where they work or has seen them before. Very urgent and important for me to contact them. Love you all and thank you.
