What we had worked perfectly well particularly now State Highway One traffic no longer goes through the town. There are many more important ways to spend the millions involved, how about putting in towards the Levin by-pass that the government postponed until 2029?

What a culture shift, NZ! Dog owners pick up their dog poo and the streets are so much cleaner. EXCEPT recently in Waikanae Beach North. Disappointed to see so many dog poos just abandoned on the grass berms, in little green bags in the gutter and even sitting on letter boxes. C'mon, people! … View moreWhat a culture shift, NZ!

Just wondering how many Kapiti residents are aware of a proposed major development at 240 Kapiti Road (horse paddock).

The proposal is for the construction of 135 medium density town houses & 165 car parks. See Kapiti Council website for plans & consent application. The developer in his application to Council has said the impact to all the surrounding areas will be 'minor'...hence their ability to have a very 'limited' notification process.
Whether you agree or disagree surely a major development of this kind should have been open to the wider community to have a say...especially as it will have a huge impact on such things as traffic on an already congested Kapiti Road, etc.
Hearing for limited notified resource consent will be held at Kapiti Council's library meeting room this Thursday & Friday 10/11 Nov 9.30am
Why does mould appear in the first place?
Mould grows in damp areas where there is a food source such as dust, dirt or organic material. That’s why single glazed or drafty windows, where condensation and dust are common, are often a problem area.

Mould grows in damp areas where there is a food source such as dust, dirt or organic material. That’s why single glazed or drafty windows, where condensation and dust are common, are often a problem area.
What are some tips for preventing mould growth?
Clean soft furnishings regularly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually involves a regular light vacuum, with less frequent dry cleaning or laundering. Regularly clean windows and wipe down window surrounds and venetian blinds or shutters with a mild detergent in warm water.
Does the material of the curtains affect how much mould will grow?
Yes, consider selecting window coverings manufactured from man-made materials, particularly in damp areas such as the bathroom, kitchen and on south-facing windows. It’s best to use a wipe-able, water-resistant blind or shutter in wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens. Even man-made fabrics don’t cope well in those environments.
How do I remove the mould?
Once mould develops it’s best to nip it in the bud as early as possible with a thorough clean. Some curtains can be hand washed (check the manufacturer’s instructions) but, for best results, we recommend taking them to a specialist cleaner. Curtain Clean services most of the North Island and takes care of all types of curtains and blinds.
Since moisture is the culprit, how can we minimise it in our homes?
- Use lids on pots and pans when cooking.
- Never hang clothes to dry inside and vent your clothes drier to the outside.

King single bed, base (with 2 drawers), and mattress. Very good condition. Some linen is also available.
Wooden desk with two drawers and a steel frame going free. It just needs a coat of paint and a couple of screws to secure the top to the frame. I'm using as a laundry table at present. If you didn't want to paint, it would be good for a garage, or as a potting table.
Very comfy reading chair. Mahogany wood frame. Still good to sit in but if it had a new cushion cover it would be more in vogue. Too good to throw away. **SOLD*
