Council will decide in June if it will go ahead with the next annual rates rise, this time it is proposed the average bill will grow 5.25% each year for the next four years.
What do you think? Someone has to pay for infrastructure, balance the books etc, right? Or are there areas that could be cut… View moreCouncil will decide in June if it will go ahead with the next annual rates rise, this time it is proposed the average bill will grow 5.25% each year for the next four years.
What do you think? Someone has to pay for infrastructure, balance the books etc, right? Or are there areas that could be cut back?
Maybe you're still getting over the shock of last year's bills after all those property values jumped!

The council will this week vote on whether or not to give Maori names for New Zealand Flora and Fauna to the streets at the new housing development going up at Kenepuru Landing on the old hospital land.

While countless gardeners around the world are stripping off to tend to their flower beds and vege patches, falling temperatures across NZ have led to calls for the Southern hemisphere to have it's own naked gardening day in spring, when it's a bit warmer. So what do you think?

Saturday's weather forecast is looking good so we expect a good turnout of other stalls plus our Lions used book stall will be out for your perusal.
This week we have Honey and egg news.
We are expecting to have some Waireka Rewarewa honey in 500g jars for $16.00. This honey is more expensive than the Helens Honey we normally have on sale and we are looking to broaden our Honey product offerings. There will be free taste-testing available on the Rewarewa honey.
This week is likely to be the last week we have Standard barn eggs available. The reason is most producers are moving to free-range eggs only, so supply-and-demand is driving up barn egg prices and increased supply is keeping free-range egg prices static. We will continue with Standard barn eggs but only as long as they are substantially cheaper than free-range. We will confirm Standard barn eggs availability each week.
Tawa Lions gratefully acknowledges the support of Outlet City in providing the venue for our Market.
