Kāpiti council reminds everyone to stay at home
The Kāpiti District Council is reminding everyone to stay at home, now we are at Alert Level 4.
"This means we must stay at home in our bubbles, mask up and maintain physical distancing when we go out to access essential services or light exercise. All our pools, libraries and Council service centres are closed. Our playgrounds are also closed but they are not taped off due to the short notice we had to move to Alert Level 4 and the need to keep our people safe – the Delta variant is a very different beast and we are not prepared to put our people, who are your friends and neighbours, at risk. The Prime Minister has made it very clear that the use of playgrounds is strictly prohibited so please do the right thing and follow the Alert Level 4 rules. We appreciate that this is a very unsettling time for everyone and we’ll do our best to keep you informed. Our call centre is still operating so if you need urgent assistance you can contact us on 0800 486 486 (if it’s an emergency situation please call 111).
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
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?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
💨 Wellington: Is the real summer finally here?
It’s the talk of the town (and every coffee queue): the Wellington "summer" has felt more like a very long, very damp spring! 🌧️ We’ve definitely had our fair share of grey skies and raincoats lately.
In fact, The Post reports that our "pretty average" summer has been tough on the local venues and events that usually thrive under the sun. But don't pack away the sunscreen just yet!
The good news? The next couple of weeks are looking a bit more "settled" (the Wellington word for "not a gale-force downpour"). With autumn officially here, now is the time to squeeze every last drop out of the season! ☀️
Any local hidden spots or activities you’d recommend for a calm Wellington day? Drop them in the comments! 👇
