TAMATI PLACE

Heather from Waikanae Beach

Our property backs on to the large vacant piece of land known as Tamaki Place (off Barrett Drive). It is owned by the Waikanae Land Company. In past years a contractor has mowen the weeds, grasses and black berries at least once a year, but it has been quite some time now since it has been cleared. I am concerned about the height of the grass near our boundary. I used to pay a gardener every three months to keep the boundary clear but it became too expensive to pay for the upkeep of someone else's property!! I have tried through lawyers and the Kapiti Coast District Council to get contact details for WLC, but to no avail. Does anyone know how WLC can be contacted so the grass can be cut? Thank you.

ACCOMMODATION REQUIRED

Gary from Waikanae

Our grandson (20) recently moved to Kapiti from Taranaki and is looking for accommodation. Anything considered.
He describes himself as clean and tidy, friendly but a bit reserved and quiet.
I would add trustworthy and family orientated.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
