Say NO to intensification of our suburbs!!

Jay from New Lynn

Great to see Christchurch opposing intensification of their suburbs. "Council accuses 'tone-deaf' Government of imposing 'Auckland planning rules' in Christchurch". www.stuff.co.nz...
Here in New Lynn the council has given permission for an industrial sized 100 child childcare centre with 3 floors of shoebox sized, 2 bed boarding house rooms on top, in breach of zoning rules, with zero parking but plenty of bike racks. The street is chocka with parked cars as it is. New developments no longer need to provide parking. Imagine, on top of this, 100 cars twice a day dropping off and picking up kids with virtually nowhere to park! Thanks Auckland Council!!

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
