Do you have a favourite among the winners?
A pūriri tree hideaway in Raglan, a super-energy efficient home in Cambridge, and a space that’s a mix of Pākeha modernism and te ao Māori are all winners in this year’s Waikato/Bay of Plenty architectural awards.
Twelve ‘stunning’ residential projects were recognised, along with another 14 that spanned commercial, public, educational, urban design and interior architecture, in the region’s Te Kāhui Whaihanga New Zealand Institute of Architects’ Awards this year.
Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.

One size fits all rates cap model ‘unworkable’, says Waipā DC
Waipā District Council says the government’s “one size fits all” proposal to cap rate rises could disproportionately harm fast-growing councils such as Waipā.
On Wednesday, Strategic Planning and Policy committee members debated the council’s submission on the proposed rates cap model.
Recommendation
Any recommendations please for someone who can knock out a dent in a car bumper.
