Time to get the clippers out

The Team from Marlborough District Council

Now’s a good time to get the clippers out and prune back any branches or vegetation overhanging the footpaths from your property.

This is required to keep footpaths safe and accessible for everyone, be it the postie, someone with a guide dog or a push chair.

If you rent the property, check with the property manager or owner on who is responsible.

Footpath and overhanging vegetation inspections take place in April and May, so your early attention may save you being issued a reminder notice.

Thanks for looking after our footpath users and keeping Marlborough safe, tidy and accessible.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
