Heritage funding applications worth more than $253,000 have been received for a fund with just $35,000 left to spend.
Sixteen groups or individuals have applied to Waipa District Council’s heritage fund, wanting their share of the $35,000 left from the $70,000 available annually. Support is being sought for natural heritage projects (wetland restoration and protection, pest control etc), built heritage projects (sign restoration, painting, fencing etc) and cultural/archaeological heritage.
Funding applications range from $2,571 to help restore a kahikatea stand, to more than $61,000 for a wetland restoration.
A working group has been appointed to consider the applications made up of councillors Sue Milner, Bruce Thomas and Hazel Barnes plus Nga Iwi Toopu o Waipa representative Poto Davies.
The working group has the power to call on external expertise as required and will meet as soon as possible.

That means boys can also be protected against some types of cancer.
HPV-related cancers take a long time to develop, the viruses are mostly transmitted by teenagers and young adults but often aren’t diagnosed until later. That’s why it’s important for children to be immunised when they are young. Around 80% of people will be exposed to HPV at some point in their life. Protecting children before they are exposed to HPV will protect their health in the future.
For more information about HPV immunisation, see www.health.govt.nz/hpv
