Mayoral and Ward candidates meetings in Brooklyn
Hello / Kia ora
The Greater Brooklyn Residents Association Inc invites you to their two candidates meetings - tomorrow and Thursday this week. An excellent chance to fine tune your votes.
Firstly, tomorrow Tuesday the 23rd of September, we host the Mayoral candidates meeting at 7pm.
Secondly, on Thursday the 25th of September, we host the Southern Ward, Maori and Greater Wellington Regional Council candidates also at 7pm.
We will run both meetings as follows (the order may change as we fine tune the running of the evening closer to the time):
# 7pm (sharp!) - Welcome to the candidates and audience, rules of the evening (introduction, no water pistols, respect for candidates and other members of the audience)
# candidates will all get asked some questions – requiring a yes/no answer or a very short explanation.
# Then each candidate will get around 2 possibly 3 minutes to talk.
# Then we will have some limited questions from the floor.
ACCESS TO THE VENUE
The venue is the Brooklyn Community Centre, 18 Harrison Street, Brooklyn.
The #7 and #17 buses all stop at the hub or near the intersection of Harrison Street and Cleveland Street. These buses come from the railway station or from Kowhai Park (#17) or Kingston (#7).
The #29 and #39 buses come from somewhere around/near Island Bay or Owhiro Bay.
There is a fence you can lock your bikes to. There is very little vehicle parking in Harrison Street. So if you are close enough we encourage you to walk to the venue. If coming by car, plan to park elsewhere and walk. We can’t reserve parking for you all at the centre.
We look forward to you exercising your democratic duties, in a positive and respectful manner.
Yours sincerely,
Carl Savage
Secretary

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?
Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.
This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.
We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚
