We'd be keen to hear from those of you who had to cancel an overseas trip due to Covid-19 and holidayed in New Zealand instead. How did you find your NZ trip? Was it better or worse than you expected? Did you enjoy it as much as you think you would have enjoyed your overseas holiday? And did it change your views about holidaying domestically?

Kia ora neighbours, do you recognise this cat? The lucky moggie is one life lighter after surviving a cross-country jaunt by a whisker. She was found under a truck that had travelled from Palmerston North to Auckland, but it's not known when she jumped on board.

We are developing management plans for parks and reserves across local board areas over the next few months and are asking Aucklanders for their input to help inform draft plans, which will be consulted on some time next year. So if you have ideas then we'd really like to hear from you.
The link below leads you to interactive maps where you can post specific input for a specific park. or simply fillout the online form.
We'd love to include your input in the plans.

I have spoken to the Police Area Commander and received an updated.
The key things for our community to know are:
1. The people involved with Friday's events were known to each other so it was not a random incident.
2. The firearms related to the incident have been recovered.
3. Police are actively working their way through what happened.
I have also been on the phone with Kainga Ora and expect to be in communication with them more throughout the day. If there are any further updates I will touch base again.
