The Madison Park Homes show home at 126 Colonial Drive, Millwater stands out from the crowd with its innovative new design, mono pitch styling and contrasting claddings of natural timber and stone.
The home is a showcase of the quality build principles Madison Park is becoming known for. Everywhere you look there are quality fixtures and fittings chosen from carefully selected suppliers. The home gives you a tremendous sense of space and lightness due to the clever use of large windows, high ceilings and oversize doors.
Come and visit. We hope our new show home will inspire visitors as they develop ideas, plans and specification for their own new home”. And until the end of April, every visitor goes into the draw to win an iPhone.
We love giving advice and guidance. Come and see us at our new show home. Open 12 - 4 pm, Tuesday - Sunday.

Rodney's public transport patronage in August and September 2018 has increased nine per cent compared with a year earlier.

This is high compared to the one to two per cent increase recorded in the region's more central suburbs. Auckland Council says this is thanks to the 11.5 cent a litre Auckland regional fuel tax which came into effect in July last year.
Did the fuel tax encourage you to make the switch to public transport? To what extent are Rodney's public transport options adequate enough to support patronage? What more should be done to free up our roads and help north Auckland residents access central commodities?

Do you know what your rights are at work? How about your rights to do with renting or owning a home? If you buy something that’s faulty do you know what your options are? This CAB Awareness Week from 8-14 April you’re being invited to Discover Your Rights – Tūhuratia ō motika!

Helping people to know what their rights and responsibilities are and how they can act on these is core to what the Citizens Advice Bureau is about. We help people from all walks of life to access the information they need so they are empowered to take next steps and to resolve their problems.
A highlight of this year’s Awareness Week is the launch of the CAB’s new public website - www.cab.org.nz.... After a year of development and user testing, the resulting website provides an accessible, mobile-friendly, knowledgebase of 2,000 questions and answers about people’s rights that are based on real issues confronted by clients.
The information about rights is grounded in the law but is practical and is expressed in a way that’s easy to understand.
The website also provides a directory of more than 30,000 community organisations so that the CAB can help connect people with any additional services they need.
We’re keen to break down any barriers people face in finding out what their rights are. Our new website is a fantastic resource for the whole community, and complements the amazing face-to-face and phone service provided by our skilled and dedicated volunteers.
We invite you to Discover Your Rights with us this Awareness Week by checking out our new website www.cab.org.nz..., calling us 0800 367 222, or by visiting your local CAB. We’re here to help.
