• Have done one or more of the following since 1 January this year:

o Applied for a food licence

o Applied for a community grant or loan

o Made an official information request

o Phoned or emailed Council to get something fixed, such as noise, mowing or a damaged bin

o Requested a property information file or land information memorandum (LIM)

o Joined a Auckland Council library as a new member

o Applied for a building consent

o Made a submission on the Auckland Plan or 10-year plan

o Joined a leisure centre (gym or pool) as a new member

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

We want to know: Are you seeing signs of Auckland's economy improving in your industry or neighbourhood? Whether it's busier shops, new projects kicking off, or just a shift in the mood ...
