A petition is circulating to get curtains added as part of the Healthy Homes Standards in the hopes of helping renters avoid living in cold, damp conditions. Do you think curtains should be mandatory for New Zealand homes?

This builds on the survey we did on the building, property and consenting section a few months back. You told us you found it hard to find things in the structure we’d suggested, so we’ve listened and come up with what we hope is a more straightforward approach. Your response will help us organise the content on our website, and will only take about 10–15 minutes – ows.io...
To say thank you for investing your time we have two $100 prezzie cards to give away! Just include your name and email at the end of the survey to go in the draw.

During the meeting, we'll be discussing the outcome of our investigation into the relocation of the reservoir on its site. We have taken several factors into consideration to ensure the best optimal position for the reservoir including:
✅ minimising the visual impact of the reservoir
✅ keeping the reservoir and associated infrastructure within property boundaries
✅ considering the height and slope behind the reservoir
✅ assessing the impact of the development
✅ potential effects on the access track to the reservoir.
This is a great opportunity to learn more about the project. To find out more, visit www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...

How many of you are aware of the proposed changes to the speed limits throughout Kapiti. This will affect everyone. It is interesting to note that in the last 20 years there has been no pedestrian deaths within the proposed area. Below is copied from Facebook

· Fancy every street in Paraparaumu being 30km/hr with a few exceptions at 40km/hr? HAVE YOUR SAY.
(orange are 30km/hr, pink are 40km/hr in first picture)
Kāpiti Coast District Council are inviting your thoughts on their Speed Management Plan. And I bet you have thoughts. Labour are requiring councils to have a plan to reduce speeds. This is a pretty aggressive way to do it.
This is Labour Party madness which council seem to be right into.
This is fixing something that isn't broken.
This is a crazy combination of not understanding the problem and then over-engineering the solution.
If you look at NZTA crash data there are no deaths of pedestrians on Paraparaumu or Waikanae urban roads in the last 20 years, there are very few fatal crashes on urban streets, and incredibly few where a speed limit change would change the outcome.
Don't misunderstand, every life is worth doing something to save, but a driver of these changes is the safety gain for pedestrians and "other modes" like kids biking to school etc. Fortunately, that hasn't been a problem for us. Expanding the school zones to cover the entirety of Paraparaumu, and slowing down every driver, every business, everyone who needs to pop to the shops or pick up the kids; this can't be the answer. If it would really have saved lives we would have done it years ago.
I'd much rather see Waka kotahi NZTA focus on increasing the speed of our new, world-class, safe expressways, rather than slow us down.
Council have laid out what they plan to do. You can agree, you can disagree, but please have your say.
