Let’s Talk Waimakariri
Hi,
COVID-19 has affected everyone in one way, shape or form. The Council is looking for ideas and feedback to shape a plan for Waimakariri’s recovery in the wake of COVID-19.
To best reflect the aspirations of our community we want to hear from as wide a range of Waimakaririans as possible.
How you can help is by sharing this message with your colleagues, friends and networks as well as taking part in the process yourself too.
Google 'Lets Talk Waimakariri" to find the link.A draft plan, called ‘Waimakariri: Better than Before’, is in development and currently has six programmes of focus including:
· Playing a role in leadership, advocacy and providing support for businesses who are facing a downturn
· Preparing strategies to further improve our town centres and business areas while accelerating the ‘green economy'
· Supporting investment from the development and building sector
· Bringing forward planned capital projects that could stimulate the economy and provide jobs
· Ensure the wellbeing of all residents through additional community development and support
· Maximise business survival and enable new business development.
Registering to take part is quick and easy and you will stay informed on what stage of the process we are at throughout.
Thanks,
Simon

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
Apple tree
Blush Babe dwarf apple tree from Waimea Nursery. A lovely eating apple.
A new plant is $70, I'd like $50 for this tree that is about 7 years old.
