Betty Wark Room Ellen Melville Centre
(click on the link for more info)
We will go through the required AGM decisions, including electing a new committee.
CCRG are always looking for other city centre fans to join the committee, to provide the widest range of perspectives that our incredibly diverse city centre contains, and deserves.
You don't need 'committee experience', you just need your lived experience and enthusiasm for making the CC a better place for residents.
And whatever time you can share.
We are all volunteers doing what we can.
Providing a voice for city centre residents.
We will also have a presentation and kōrero on
A Locky Dock Network for Auckland's City Centre
Guest speaker: Cleve Cameron, co-founder and Managing Director of Big Street Bikers.
'Big Street Bikers is on a mission to enable more people to bike more often — to reduce congestion, reduce emissions and contribute to the community vibe.
To do this they’re rolling out a network of innovative and attractive Locky Docks across Aotearoa. Cleve will be presenting about how Locky Docks are helping Aucklanders make the switch to a bike ride for short trips.'
Cleve will be sharing Big Street Bikers proposed locations for the City Centre and the benefits of a network of Locky Docks providing bike parking, charging, and wayfinding.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
