Forrest Hill Neighbourhood Society AGM
The Forrest Hill Neighbourhood Society will be holding our Annual General Meeting (AGM):
Time: 6-8pm
Date: Sunday 18th June 2023
Where:Sunnynook Community Centre 148 Sycamore Dr, Sunnynook (Opposite Countdown)
Light refreshments provided.
Residents of Kennedy Ave, Lyttelton Ave, Augusta Pl, Baltimore Pl, Wilmington Pl and Newport Pl are invited to attend the AGM. Residents of neighbouring streets Longwood Pl, Becroft Dr, Pendene Pl and Trevone Pl are invited to attend to learn about the covenant and how to get involved.
Some of the society successes this year include:
· Successful engagement with real estate agents to raise awareness of the covenant and, in a number of cases, correction of misleading advertising by agents.
· Attendance at auctions, whether in house or onsite, to ensure correct information is relayed to prospective purchasers.
· We have engaged with a property owner in Baltimore via our legal representation to prevent the development of multiple properties on the site, however despite assurances through their legal representation that only one dwelling will be built, we note continued developments on site that indicate an intent to breach the single-dwelling land covenant. We continue to monitor this situation.
· Responded to the Auckland Council zoning changes, both the initial feedback as well as the formal feedback opportunities. Further engagement is expected. It should be noted that Plan Change 78 is now on hold for one year.
It is only with the support of residents that we can continue to protect the aesthetic nature of our neighbourhood, through upholding the protective covenant that supports our beautiful suburb. We look forward to your attendance.
The more members we can get on board the better our chances of successfully challenging future developments.

⚠️ 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 ❤️
