Regional council rates set to go up

Jono Galuszka Reporter from Manawatū Standard

Mōrena neighbours,

Horizons Regional Council is asking people to get in touch about its annual plan, which as it stands has rates going up by 1 per cent.

Some councillors say rates need to stay flat, while others say what is not paid for now needs paying for later.

What are your thoughts? Should there be no rates increase? Or is it better to get work done sooner rather than latter?

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
