Eskdale Park
Hi Everyone
Thank you for your support of Eskdale Park. The Reserve Management Plan process is continuing for the park. The first step of the process is the My Voice My Choice survey which has been running for some weeks now. The survey ends tomorrow, Friday April 23rd. Which means that tomorrow is the last day to fill out a survey.
If you have not filled in a My Voice My Choice survey for the Eskdale Park please consider doing so. It only take a few minutes to complete the survey online. Just please be very careful of how you answer question 13 on the online form. As it is basically the HBMTBC conceptual drawing in a survey form. (So much for their plan/drawing being off the table as HDC and the Mayor has led us all to believe). Gee Whiz.
If you need help filling out the survey please reach out to us. Our email address is saveeskdalepark@gmail.com

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. Together we can preserve Eskdale Park for all people for all time, the way Thomas Clark envisioned it to be.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated

Make a hearty dish. Take just half a minute. Add four parts of kestrel. Then just add one. What have you made?
