On Going Issue With Toilets In Tahunanui
I am not sure if anyone has been dealing with Nelson City Council (NCC), It has been so frustrated reporting ongoing issue with the public toilets around Tahunanui. NO prompt action has been taken re complaint, it is really concerning/alarming. I reported to the area person in charge for the toilets/park for Tahunanui area on Monday, 9 May until today 16 May, it has NOT been actioned. The toilets have been poorly maintained, not being cleaned on daily basis, toilet papers are not replenished, stink and dirty from floor to toilets. Their cleaning contractor OCS that in charge for Tahuna is really slack and untrustworthy. Money from Rates payers has been wasted as usual. I ran out of idea how to bring this forward so it will not happen again. The only solution now I bring it to public. Anyone care/concern about hygiene/cleanliness at our public toilets in this Covid Endemic? please report it. Do you think these toilets all are okay?

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
