DO we fight against climate change or for extra petrol station
We have one petrol station in Pegasus, Waikuku, three in Amberley, then Waipara and so on in every small town along the way. It's a school bus stop here where the extra station is about to be built. If you want an extra station then, locate it outside the town. What about the climate change strike, everyone screaming, that we should care about our environment, our cows are farting too much, but the big company are still do their business, sounds like an extra station is OK and the petrol is clean and green, right in the middle of town.
Community still grow, what about the bigger library , post office, extra bank, children's playground or swimming pool, or dedicated electric car rapid charging station that can serve at least 5 cars at once, we have three gas stations with multitude of pumps and only one electric car charger that capable of only one car per 30 min?
So it looks like our council does not care about local people, the sighing process went absolutely secretive, we did not know until the last day, no notice in the letter box, no announcement. Everything was predetermined, the big buck opens all the doors. So if you want to compete, simply buy out the competitor and open your business at old location. They closed one in central of Woodend and open one on outskirts of town, thus relocating it away from residential area. And not increasing the number of gas stations.
I am not against the business, but it is too many in one place.

Poll: Would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? 🌿🐦
Canterbury, you have a hidden treasure right on your doorstep ... though it does come with a 1.5-hour walk up the stunning Rakaia Gorge Walkway.
Along the trail you’ll find The Fantail Shop showcasing small artworks by local artisans. Even better, every purchase supports the Fantail Trust, helping protect and restore biodiversity on the north bank of the gorge.
So we’re curious: would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? (And for local biodiversity, of course 🌿)
