New Housing Density Proposal
What a disaster. Seems good in theory until you see what they actually propose. Many suburbs are now zoned as mixed housing so nothing to stop developers buying properties and putting up low level apartment blocks. This includes suburbs like Westmere and Pt Chev. In fact dozens of suburbs. I suggest you provide feedback. A general rant isn’t good enough - they want specific comments on changes around large and small “town centres’ as well as on incorporating extra protection for areas of special character. You will need to do it on a desktop or grunty laptop as you need the maps and the legend open as well as the feedback form all at the same time. Impossible on a tablet or phone. And to find the special character overlay you have to click on ‘layers’ in the top left corner , choose the second menu block on the left, then scroll down and click on the special character overlay which is greyed out. Yes really. Ridiculous. I will post the link in a seperate box in a few minutes. This is one time you need to tell them what you think

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41.5% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
56.9% No, I enjoy it
-
1.7% Other - I'll share below
