IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR HUTT CITY RESIDENTS
RESIDENTIAL INTENSIFICATION FOR HUTT CITY -
HUTT City Council wants to approve the building of 3 Storey Apartments/Buildings in nine targeted areas in Lower Hutt. Once approved this could be become city wide.
Do you want a 3 Storey Building beside your single storey home one metre from your boundary on three sides of your property. This will cause loss of sunlight, dampness, cold homes, traffic congestion, devaluation of your home, loss of privacy and noise. We are not against intensification of our city with two storey buildings/apartments and granny flats etc, just 3 storey buildings and Councils plans are to have blocks and blocks of them. Areas targeted at the moment are Epuni, Waterloo, Wainuiomata, Alicetown, Waiwhetu/Woburn, Avalon/Park Ave, Naenae, Stokes Valley and Taita.
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!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

69.8% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
-
46.2% I avoid spending money on coffee
-
44.2% I still indulge at my local cafe
-
9.6% Irrelevant - coffee is not for me
