Thinking about standing in this year’s local elections?
Thinking about standing in this year’s local elections? Join us for a kōrero with our Council team tomorrow, Saturday 19 July, at the Council Chambers (175 Rimu Road, Paraparaumu). We’re holding two sessions, one at 10am and another at 2pm.
If you're even slightly curious about what it’s like to stand for Council, whether you’ve been thinking about it for a while, or it’s just a little spark at the back of your mind, this is your chance to ask questions, meet the team, and get a real feel for what it’s all about and how to get yourself nominated.
You don’t need to be a politician. You just need to care about your community. ✨ Pop down and say hi. You never know, this might be the start of something pretty awesome.
Free collection of broken chest freezer.
I have a chest freezer which is broken. I was wanting to know if there is anyone out there who does collection of white goods free.
ACCOMMODATION REQUIRED
Our grandson (20) recently moved to Kapiti from Taranaki and is looking for accommodation. Anything considered.
He describes himself as clean and tidy, friendly but a bit reserved and quiet.
I would add trustworthy and family orientated.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.6% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
