Update following strong winds

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

Kia ora Kāpiti, we hope you're safe and well after that blustery spring night. It's a great reminder to keep your outside bits and pieces secured. This morning our crews are responding to a range of weather-related issues after a busy night.

⚠️Of immediate concern are the six damaged macrocarpa trees at Te Atiawa Park. Several of these large trees were uprooted, an indication of the wind’s strength. Contractors will be working to get these cleared from today. PLEASE keep clear of fallen or damaged trees, they are NOT SAFE to be on or around‼️

Our teams are also out assessing our other parks and reserves today – there's a bit of debris scattered around different parts of Kāpiti. We’ll be getting that cleaned up as soon as possible.

If your property has been damaged by a tree on Council property, or you come across something that needs our attention as a result of the winds, please contact us by...
📲 logging a service request through our free app Antenno 👉🏼 www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
💻 submitting an online service request 👉🏼 www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
📞 calling our Customer Engagement team on 0800 486 486.

Events like this are a reminder we all need to be prepared for emergencies and have those emergency supplies and grab bags ready to go. For more information on how you and your whānau can get prepared, visit www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
