Here's the latest on the wet weather, from TCDC
MetService is predicting the heavy showers we are experiencing will stay with us until later this afternoon.
The bursts of heavy rain overnight has caused the Manaia River to cross State Highway 25, and there are reports of surface flooding in Coromandel Town.

NZTA have stop-go traffic control in place on SH25 just north of Thames while they clear slips from the road.

We ask that people drive to the conditions, allowing extra time in case of slips, surface water and debris on the road.

If you do come across anything on your way to work this morning you can call our customer services team on 07 8680200 for district roads or NZTA on 0800 44 44 49.

Under the Stars - Homeless in Tauranga
We are a Charitable Trust feeding the homeless and needy. We supply hygiene necessities, blankets, and clothing for those in need. We are also fortunate to have a hairdresser occasionally on site who gives her services for free. Recently we have begun to hold a drop in afternoon every second Thursday, giving people the opportunity to have a light lunch and a chance to chat. We are hoping to develop this afternoon more by offering a variety of creative arts. The volunteers that commit time and energy towards our meals do so mostly out of their own funds.

Proposed youth centre for Keith Street Wanganui central district
I propose the opening and running of a youth centre based in Keith street or Wanganui cbd. The benefits of having a youth centre in the community will bring together the younger and older generations, so we can learn from each others mistakes and experiences to enhance each other’s lives. We have a mixture of people from different cultures in our society in such a small radius that sometimes we forget about those who really are struggling with life, and they are the most vulnerable people in our society. I want to change that for the better, and help those people that are struggling to survive on the basic benefit or wages. VOTE NOW!
