Hi neighbours,

Are you going out of your way to collect plastic bags before they become illegal in NZ? Some Kiwis have admitted they are stockpiling bags before they can no longer get them from supermarkets and petrol stations.

It's been noticed that some customers have been taking plastic bags for things like single chocolate bars and drinks "to save up".

Do you find plastic bags handy for bin liners? What eco-friendly tips and alternatives to plastic can you share with your neighbours? Leave a reply to share your thoughts.

Thames Coromandel District Council has received more than $2 million of funding from the Government’s Tourism Infrastructure Fund, for the following three projects:

• $1,426,841 for an upgrade of visitor infrastructure in Hahei to respond to growing visitor numbers at nearby Cathedral Cove.

• $467,500 for an upgrade of existing toilet and wastewater facilities at Whangapoua Beach, which is the last stop before heading to New Chum Beach.

• $108,352 for the provision of public toilet facilities at Onemana Beach.

In Hahei, the funding will provide for an additional 250 carparks at the Hahei Village Entrance Carpark on Hahei Beach Rd and improved walking connections between the carpark and the beach, through to Cathedral Cove. It will also pay for a new and improved toilet at the village shops close to the Hahei Community Hall.

Over summer, the return park-and-ride shuttle fares from the carpark are $5 adults, $3 for children up to 15 years and $10 families.

“This funding for the carpark extension will also help reduce the burden on our local ratepayers and bring forward tourist-related infrastructure that was otherwise unaffordable,” Mayor Sandra says.
