Sue from Epuni

SUBMISSIONS CLOSE 9TH MARCH
PLEASE SHARE WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY, THANKS
RESIDENTIAL INTENSIFICATION PLAN CHANGE 43.
10 METRE BUILDINGS ONE METRE FROM THE BOUNDARY!
PLEASE HAVE YOUR SAY ON WHAT HUTT CITY COUNCIL IS PROPOSING FOR OUR CITY.

(The photo below is only showing you a two storey building not a three storey building.
www.huttcity.govt.nz...
This plan change could cause loss of sunlight especially in the winter, dampness, loss of privacy, flooding problems, noise, properties devalued, traffic congestion and most of all our beautiful garden city will be ruined forever. We need balance in our city and small areas of two storey buildings is high enough in our earthquake prone city and building apartments in the CBD overlooking the river will be a solution for the CBD and help retail businesses in the city. Hutt City needs to desperately fill up the empty shops along High Street and Queens Drive to make our city thrive again and building apartments create more shoppers to the area.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
