Parking meters in Petone

Jenny from Petone

It is beyond my comprehension that the Hutt City Council would choose to start putting parking meters in Petone. Are they totally unaware that we are in a very difficult place economically, and shopkeepers are struggling to keep their heads above water? Are they hoping to get more people to choose to shop at Queensgate? Look how that impacted on Lower Hutt's business centre. Is this a move to undermine Petone's economy as well? Quite frankly I think this is a disgusting thing to do, and I would be interested to hear what other members of the community feel about this.

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
