Online: Waitematā Local Board Recovery Budget Hearing Event

Dee Sims from Waitematā Local Board

Consultation on one of the most important budgets in Auckland's history is now open. Auckland Council wants to recover from the impacts of COVID-19, supporting growth in local communities and across the region.

Impacts of the Recovery Budget will be felt locally across Waitematā, so we need to know what's important to you and your community to help us prioritise spending over the next 10-years.

Register to present your views on the Recovery Budget and the Waitematā Local Board priorities for 2021-2022, at our Hearing Style Event, via Skype for Business. The event is happening Tuesday 9th March, starting 4:30pm.

Waitematā Local Board members and Councillors Desley Simpson and Pippa Coom will be in attendance to hear the presentations and answer your questions.

If you’d like to give a presentation, please email us to register and for instructions on how to join: waitematalocalboard@aucklandcouncil.govt.nz by 5pm Monday 8th March.

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
