New dog signs at Chelsea Bay Beach/Telephone Road Reserve

John Gillon from

:I'm pleased to finally check this one off! These new signs have been installed to make it clearer where the 24/7 off-leash area for dogs begins and ends.
Back in 2014, the Kaipātiki Local Board held dog rule hearings and heard about on-going problems with dogs running from the off-leash area into neighbouring properties, so we made the decision to install a dog-proof gate. But no money was ever assigned to it...

Fast-forward to 2018 and I managed to secure some budget for the project. It turned out that a gate won't work due to the terrain, so the Local Board instead decided to install information signs with maps at each end of the open area. The maps also help to clarify the boundary of the park and private properties as that isn't obvious when you are there.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
