City Centre Residents' Monthly Meeting 6 July 5.30pm

CCRG from Auckland City Centre Residents' Group - CCRG

We're back! keen to reconnect with residents new & existing, welcome new members, & discuss things City-Centric.

At our community hub - Ellen Melville Centre on Freyberg Place - All city centre residents welcome!

Agenda is HERE: bit.ly...

The meeting starts at 5.30 & then we have 2 guest speakers:

First up is about Tūrama Festival, www.turamafestival.co.nz... taking over much of Albert Park in October - looks impressive and these events can be great, but they can & do have impacts for residents so hear about the event, impacts on residents, & ask any questions.

And then we have a speaker from CRL regarding the Aotea Station ( www.cityraillink.co.nz... ) works - At 15m-deep & 300m long, this station (& CRL) will be fantastic for the city centre of course, but you can't deny that the construction has major impacts for residents, that have to be (well) planned & managed. Find out about what's in store for us over the next 4 years, and ask your questions

Drum roll....CCRG have set the date for our (city centre) famous General Election Forum - Tuesday 1 September, Pioneer Women’s Hall, Ellen Melville Centre, 6.00 – 8.00 p.m. Calendar this Now!

See you Monday, 5.30pm at Ellen Melville (Betty Wark Room)

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
