Building owners want input over cellphone tower location

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Telecommunications company 2 Degrees is under fire over its communication about a proposed cellphone tower next to a Rolleston shopping centre.

"No-one really wants this sort of thing in their back yard, but we agreed to it in principle, as long as we had some input over where it would go," South Point co-owner Tania Croucher says.

The owners are unhappy with how the proposed 15-metre-high tower will look in front of their building and suggest it should be moved to the car park behind, where it won't be so obtrusive. They are yet to hear if that option will be considered.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
