Carlile House in Auckland’s Grey Lynn is slowly crumbling away.

Its owners, the United Church of Tonga, claim the land’s significance as home to the first Tongan congregation in New Zealand is being neglected by Auckland Council, in favour of its history as an orphanage, preventing the site from being developed.

Because of the building's status as a category one historic place and a stalemate with Auckland Council, Carlile House cannot be repaired or demolished.

However, the situation has recently become of higher concern to both parties, following the recent partial collapse of the building’s roof.

More venues around Auckland will be subject to temporary alcohol bans at major events under proposed changes to Auckland Council's alcohol control bylaws.

Recurring temporary booze bans are in place for all major events at Eden Park, concerts at Mount Smart Stadium, Christmas in the Park and the Lantern Festival in Auckland.

The council's governing body has voted to amend the Alcohol Control Bylaw 2014 to put a stop to alcohol for all major events at Mount Smart Stadium, Western Springs stadium and outer fields, Auckland Domain, Auckland Zoo's carpark, Te Papapa train station and any future fan trails to events where booze is forbidden.

Councillor Josephine Bartley said the proposed changes were about protecting our communities.

"Improving temporary major event alcohol bans will stop people drinking alcohol irresponsibly on their way to, at or after a major event and help prevent the associated disorder that occurs as a result.

"People should be able to attend these wonderful events that bring vibrancy to our city without having to worry about encountering anti-social behaviour caused by groups of people binge drinking."

Bartley said the improvements helped make it safer for people to travel to events on public transport and would prevent the problem from being shifted elsewhere.

Nearly 900 people gave their feedback on the proposed changes, which come into effect on June 1.

Raised Zebra Crossing to boost safety: south Auckland

Manurewa Local Board members are welcoming news a raised zebra crossing delayed by the financial impact of Covid-19 will go ahead on Clendon Park’s Finlayson Ave.

Auckland Transport expects to begin work within the next few weeks.

“It’s fantastic news because this board believes everyone has the right to be safe walking in their own neighbourhood,” said board chair Joseph Allan.

The board has invested heavily alongside Auckland Transport in safety improvements in the Wordsworth Quadrant and plans to do so again in the Coxhead Quarter, he said.

Allan said the crossing would improve safety for children attending the nearby school.

“It’s really good news because no one wants to see a child injured and have to explain that measures to prevent that were foiled by COVID-19.”

The new zebra crossing will be on a raised table at 215 Finlayson Ave, with additional traffic and side islands to give pedestrians priority crossing the road.

Tactile yellow pavers will be installed to help visually impaired people cross safely.

Board transport portfolio lead Ken Penney said the board had been relentless in its push for raised crossings at schools.

“We have been advocating for the return of the programme to raise pedestrian crossings around schools since the rollout was halted by Covid-19 and we continue to believe it is the best move to help ensure the safety of our tamariki."

Minister walks 5 km to raise funds for vandalised church: South Auckland

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

A minister is walking 5 km on Saturday to pay for repairs to his church after it was desecrated and set on fire by vandals.

At 8am, Reverend Vaituulala Ngahe will lead a team of staff and volunteers on the fundraising trek around Bruce Pullman Park in a bid to reopen Manurewa Methodist Parish.

A minister is walking 5 km on Saturday to pay for repairs to his church after it was desecrated and set on fire by vandals.

At 8am, Reverend Vaituulala Ngahe will lead a team of staff and volunteers on the fundraising trek around Bruce Pullman Park in a bid to reopen Manurewa Methodist Parish.

The church, also known as Manurewa's Corner of Hope, has been closed for more than 8 months after arsonists wreaked damage not covered by insurance.

Funds raised through the walk will support unexpected council consenting and compliance costs from the repairs to the church and its community outreach facilities.

For the past 7 years, Reverend Vaituulala with local government agencies has been running a community meal drop-in on Tuesdays.

Since the church closure, the community meal has been run at Manurewa Anglican hall where all services and community groups are meeting.
