Urgent action required. Consent is currently pending for an 8-storey, 40 unit apartment block in Meadowbank at 21 Manapau St.
Our Community is at Stake! Sign the Petition to Stop the High-Rise!
Friends and neighbours,
Our beloved community is facing a significant threat: the proposed construction of an 8-story, 40-unit apartment block that would dwarf our two-story homes and forever alter the character of our neighborhood.
This project is more than just bricks and mortar; it represents the potential loss of our shared history, our sense of community, and the friendly, familiar environment we cherish. Imagine the children's laughter replaced by traffic noise, the friendly faces replaced by strangers, and the sunlight replaced by the imposing shadow of a concrete giant.
We can't let this happen!
By signing the petition below, you will join your fellow residents in demanding a public notification process for this project. This crucial step will ensure that all voices are heard and the potential impact on our community is thoroughly considered before any decisions are made.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?
The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.
Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.
We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
-
9.3% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-
43.6% I want to be able to choose.
-
47.1% Against. I want to deal with people.
Feeling overwhelmed?
Hi Neighbours - If you feel like you can easily get swamped or snowed under, that is something Mindfulness can help with. My clients report that practicing mindfulness helps them feel they can cope better with stressful situations, feeling less overwhelmed.
Mindfulness trains us to paying attention to the present moment, which creates space to observe your thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them.
I run sessions on the third Monday of each month at Meadowbank Community Centre, 1.30, 75 mins - Next one Monday 16th
The session includes gentle movement and relaxing simple meditation.
