Poll: Does Taupō need more tall buildings?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A new 7-storey hotel with a rooftop pool could be an iconic feature of the Taupō CBD skyline in coming years. The proposed hotel is yet to be approved but it would be the tallest building in Taupō.

Developers want to use an undeveloped carpark on Tuwharetoa St, beside Vine Eatery & Bar, and opposite Hell Pizza. The carpark is privately owned. The proposed hotel features 86 rooms and a roof-top pool, restaurant and bar, according to its resource consent application.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
