2019/20 Local Board Budget for Campbells Bay

Max from Campbells Bay

Auckland Council is currently (until 17 March) seeking feedback on its 2019/20 budget which includes Local Board budgets.

Auckland Council is currently (until 17 March) seeking feedback on its 2019/20 budget which includes Local Board budgets.

In the "Message from the chairperson" in our (Hibiscus & Bays) Local Board budget, Julia Parfitt states: " We also want to deliver greenways connections beginning with local paths through Centennial Park. They will provide recreational and leisure enjoyment as well as assisting commuters to have a more straightforward route to access public transport. "

As part of that a "Feasibility Study" proposes spending $1,780,000 on upgrading (no new route/path) a route that is considered by many to be satisfactory right now. (Top of Park Rise - Kowhai Rd - East Coast Road - Forrest Hill/East Coast Road intersection).

Meantime there is no specific mention of any budget to repair and reopen Te Araroa Trail between Mairangi Bay and Murrays Bay. This has national significance.

"Assisting commuters to have a more straightforward route to access public transport" is what Campbells Bay Community Plans have requested for some years. With the new bus routes (907 in particular) this is even more relevant for residents around the top of Park Rise. The proposed work does nothing to advance this as there is no new route.

If you have any thoughts/concerns about these priorities, please consider giving feedback online www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz... or direct email to hibiscusandbayslocalboard@aucklandcouncil.govt.nz

🌈 Celebrate Community – Mar. 1st to 31st 💙🎉

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

Knowing your neighbours is one thing, but actually spending time together is to write a much richer story together... an opportunity to have fun, learn more about each other, and recognise that the strings that connect us often run much longer than just the length of our streets.

This month is all about bringing your community together and having a great time! We want March to be all about celebrating the connections we have while making new ones along the way. As we all know, what makes a neighbourhood great isn't the houses and cars, gardens and streets - it's the people who share their presence and aroha with each other.

A wonderful way to take part is to participate in Neighbours Day Aotearoa which is celebrating it's 10th anniversary from March 22nd to 31st. To help you get started, we love their suggestions for 10 little and 10 big ways to get involved. (link below)

Let us know how you're celebrating this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:
