I am presenting this Petition at Council next week! We are over 3400 signatures now! Please help get it to 5000! Share with everyone. This is the best post for Facebook:

Sale of the #DowntownCarparkBuilding was a decision by Eke Panuku Development Auckland, ratified by the Phil Goff led Auckland Council and then endorsed by the City Vision lead Waitematā Local Board.
This is an important amenity in the Civic Centre of Auckland where ALL ratepayers have a right to access, including those in Onehunga/Royal Oak/One Tree Hill.


There is a covenant attached to the sale to provide for bus parking and disabled parking that is NOT sufficient as we rely on this carpark for:
#Convenient - parking in the Viaduct, Commercial Bay, Queen St and Ferry Terminal
#Affordable - it is reasonably priced
#Safety - as it is under cover (for lone females, parents with children and seniors)

#CivicCentre - is open to ALL visitors, especially ratepayers
#Commuters - rely on this to access their work
#InterIslandCommuters - Waiheke and Barrier residents ‘town car’ parking
#FerryCommuters - North Shore, Gulf Harbour and other places car for CBD
#Residents - city apartments without parking (reasonably priced long-term parking)
#ParknRide - when this is the hub for trains, ferries and public transport
#Visitors - day trippers to Waiheke and Barrier
#Tradies, Sales and Service - link to other locations and carry stock or large items

Auckland doesn’t have a connected network of regular, reliable public transport yet, so until such time as we do, it is too soon to sell this Public Facility.

Thunderstorms are expected Tuesday afternoon and evening (9 May) due to an active front. Some of these thunderstorms may become severe, producing localised torrential rain in excess of 40 mm/h and a slight chance of a damaging tornado.

Here's what you need to know:
- Surface and/or flash flooding is possible, especially about streams, rivers or narrow valleys - this may also lead to slips.
- Driving conditions will be hazardous with surface flooding and poor visibility in heavy rain. If any tornadoes occur, they will only affect very localised areas.
- Thunderstorm activity is expected to ease in Auckland in the early evening of Tuesday.

For information on preparing for and keeping safe during a storm, see the Civil Defence Get Ready website.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11:20am Update: There is flooding on West Coast beaches, and schools have been evacuated due to flooding.
12pm Update: Auckland Mayor declares State of Emergency. “I am urging Aucklanders to remain calm but be vigilant. Please stay away from floodwaters and open drains. It is important that you follow the official advice of Auckland Emergency Management and Auckland Transport.”

Keep up with live updates on the Stuff website.
