The area leased included the tennis and netball courts, which the group planned to relay and cover with a Canadian built $1.3 million kit-set canopy. The first of its kind in New Zealand.
The majority of public submissions during consultation in May were in support of the idea, only seven out of 62 being against. Five submissions supported the idea but expressed concern about reduced public access to the tennis courts.

I am looking for childcare for my three boys aged 12, 10 and 6 years old after school. They need to be picked up from two different schools, one is Chisnalwood and the other one in Merivale called Elmwood on Aikmans. This person needs to have a full license please. I will pay starting at 2.30pm when you would leave your house to pick the first one. I will need you to stay with them till 5.30pm when I get home from work . This is only at the moment for September starting 3rd September and onto 28th September. I need you Monday-Friday. The pay will be $18/hour. We do have a furry four legged puppy at home too, so it will not suit anyone who is scared or allergic to dogs.
You will need to help with a bit of homework and reading at home with them. Make sure they are changed and their lunch boxes put away and they have a small snack. You will need to know how to cut fruits for snacks:)
Please contact me at the earliest and come and see me and the boys at our home on Bottle lake drive. My phone number is 02722409999.
Thanks heaps,
Kusumit

Hi neighbours, plans to introduce a maximum wheel clamp removal fee of $100 have been announced. This comes after complaints against "predatory" clampers but an AA spokesman said the $100 fine was disproportionate for many parking offences. What do you think?

Under the proposed legislation, police will be given the power to fine individual clampers up to $1000 and a company up to $5000 for breaking the rules. These fines increased to $3000 and $15,000 respectively if the matter ended up in court. Read the full story here.

Izabella was born profoundly deaf and in the four years following her diagnosis, her parents' emotions of shock, being scared and overwhelmed have turned to amazement, surprise and hope - all thanks to Izabella's progress as a hearing and speaking child.
Izabella loves to sing and dance, she enjoys gymnastics, bike rides and playing with her older brothers. What are her superpowers I hear you ask? She's fierce, adventurous and caring!
Register to fundraise and help deaf children like Izabella listen and speak. You can also donate here on Givealittle. Thanks for your support!
