Merry Christmas and a joyous festive season

Shirish Paranjape from

Greetings for Christmas and festive season.
It has been a privilege for me to be one of the board members on the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewoord ward. This has given me the opportunity to participate in discussions, and decisions, impacting us all in our community.
Some of the highlights in 2017 included the reopening of Bishopdale Library, completion of Burnside Park fitness trail, opening of free BBQ station at Burnside park (kindly donated by Lions club). The F-W-H community board continues to strive to get the best value for ratepayers' funds.
It was an additional honour to be one of the representatives of the city council - representing the people of Christchurch - on the Riccarton House & Bush Trust.
I look forward to continuing to work for you at FWH community board in 2018. Best wishes

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

How much does it cost to join AEA?

There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
