Trafford St Off license Hearing

Aaron Campbell - Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Board

Hi everyone,
First things first- the decision has been reserved by the committee but hope to have it in a couple of weeks.
I'd like to thank all of you that expressed an opinion on the proposal in the various ways both to the Community Board initially last year, signed the petition and over the last two days many attended the District Licensing Committee hearing at the Fendalton Library.
There were about 45-50 members of the public there the first morning for opening statements and 30 there this morning, amazingly 15 saw it through to the end. I agree many more would have come but circumstances prevented that from happening but take heart that the numbers attending and those who made record of their objections were thorough in their presentations- this was acknowledged by the Chairperson in closing.
It was my pleasure to represent the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood board at the hearing and I appreciate the work both my governance team did in preparation and members of the three reporting agencies (District licensing, NZ Police and Medical Officer of Health) for their important roles they perform in our community.
Regards, Aaron

Loose/Lost dog on Office Road near Merivale Reserve

Jeanine from Merivale

There is a brown boxer looking dog loose on Office Road near the Merivale Reserve. I was out with my dog so I kept my distance. If it’s still there tomorrow morning I’ll call the council.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?
