Driveways driven away by new rule
Hi neighbours,
A move to free up more land for new builds is likely to see fewer driveways and garages in modern housing, in a move some say could have New Zealand looking like Coronation Street.
Councils across the country must scrap planning rules that require car parks to be put down near new housing or business developments, under newly released housing guidelines.
The change comes as the Government looks to encourage development, in part by freeing up land held up by car parks, under its new National Policy Statement for urban development.
Property developer Phil Robinson said scrapping car park rules was a “big change”, but he was unsure if it was a “big win”.
What do you think of having more new builds in your area with fewer driveways and garages?
Heartbeats Heart Support and Education Charity is Coming to St Heliers
Over 12,000 people are admitted to New Zealand hospitals each year with heart attack, cardiac arrest or heart disease.
It is the silent killer of 10,000 Kiwis each year and affects all ages.
Heartbeats is a charitable trust, and non-profit organization that provides heart event survivors with support, education and referral to allied healthcare services.
It is community-based group, with over 200 members across Auckland and with four 'chapters' (local groups) operating on the North Shore, West and Central Auckland.
We hold regular informal, monthly group meetings and have guest speakers along to educate and advise: cardiologists, GP's. dietitians, pharmacists, health psychologists and physiotherapists/exercise physiologists.
We are looking to start a St Heliers/Glendowie group in June.
If you are a heart event survivor, or have a family member who is, please give Trent (Heartbeats Convenor) a call on 0220 606 199
It's FREE and everyone, of all cultures and heart conditions, is WELCOME.
