NPDC 10 Year Plan - Have your say!!!!

Charles from Lynmouth - Moturoa

The Mayor has issued a challenge for people to submit on the Council's 10 year Plan. Apparently current submissions are no more than 20% of the last review submissions (i.e. 3 years ago). He has cheekily suggested that everybody must be happy while acknowledging this is probably not the case.

Come on then - have your say or are you happy to have the last 20 years of excessive rates increases repeated for the next 20 years. I also strongly suggest you air your major concerns or thoughts on Neighbourly for the greater good.

This can be done either on-line or there was a 2 page insert in the Daily News recently if you happened to retain.

Forever homes needed for 2 kittens 🐱 🐱 and a mom cat 🐈

Nani from Waitara

I started fostering a pregnant stray cat since just b4 Christmas. She had 4 beautiful kittens and has proven to be the greatest mom still caring for them today. I’ve managed to find 2 forever homes for 2 of the kittens but still need to find forever homes for the other 2 and their mom.

I’ve managed to find 2 forever homes for 2 of the kittens but still need to find forever homes for the other 2 and their mom. I’m appealing to you neighbourly viewers hoping there are at least 3 compassionate cat lovers amongst the several thousand + members who could offer these guys their forever homes 🏡
There are conditions as we don’t want to contribute to the alarming number of strays already roaming our region so who ever offers to open their homes and hearts will also need to open their wallets to pay for:
1. Neutering
2. Vaccinations
3 Continued Flea and worming treatment
* Sex unknown

A big ask but a necessity for responsible pet owners.

The 2 remaining kittens are almost four months old and ready to be rehoused. Because the mom was very protective they will need to be socialised properly as I could not bring them into our home with our existing 3 cats and dog. Nothing a couple of weeks forming a bond and developing trust won’t fix.
The mom must of had a home at some stage as she is adorable and affectionate once you earn her trust.
So you amazing 🤩 animal lovers if you can’t personally offer a home then please appeal to your friends or loved ones who might find their forever cat 🐈
You can reach me on 06 7547775.

Do you want the opportunity to shape a government action plan?
Open Government Partnership NZ want to hear from you!
"Aotearoa is a member of the Open Government Partnership, which is an international agreement between 78 countries to try to make governments more open, transparent and accountable in their decision making. It also aims to improve how government incorporates the needs of the public in the design of policy and services, and a huge goal is to encourage active citizenship – when people feel confident to contribute to a change they want to see in their community or at a national level. Every two years the New Zealand Government publishes a National Action Plan outlining some commitments to progress those goals and we want your suggestions."
