Coastal hazards – Public information session
Kāpiti Coast is being affected by increasing coastal erosion and flooding as a result of sea level rise due to climate change.
On Saturday July 23, 11am at the Community Centre on Ocean Road, join our Takutai Kāpiti project team, technical experts, iwi partners, and Takutai Kāpiti Coastal Advisory Panel members to discuss the effects these coastal hazards are having now and in the future. Let us hear your views on how we should respond as a community.
We know its school holidays, so bring the kids. We’ll have drawing and colouring activities to keep them occupied while you have a cuppa and a kōrero with the team.
Come along for formal presentations from 11am-12pm then stay on or drop in between 12-2pm to mix and mingle with the Panel and our experts.

20.1% No. It's the thought and effort that matters
Driven On The Akatarawa Rd Lately?
If so, its good to know you are still alive and reading this.
We have a function to go to over Christmas up that way and having heard a few hairy stories about the road, I went up there on Thursday to check it out. The road's ok, narrow and winding, but not much worse than a Wellington hill suburb. What was pretty scary was the behavior of other drivers. Three vehicles heading the other way at speed would have crashed into me if I hadn't been pulled off the road. I had pulled in to check the address when a truck came flying past, taking up all of the narrow road at speed. There is no way the driver would have been able to stop had they come around the corner immediately in front of me. The other two drivers came hurtling past as I had turned in to turn around and come back down the hill. They were also driving at speed and taking up most of the road. Coming back down I passed another car coming up and estimate that the safe speed to pass another car was about 30-35 kms.p.h. So, now we're thinking, do we go to the function or not.? Feels a bit like we're taking our life in our hands going up there. Drivers appear to be overconfident, and they are courting serious injury.
Dog kennels
Looking for recommendations. Which is the best dog kennel in the Kāpiti region.
