Fence

Jenny from Mount Maunganui

I am wanting to replace an old wooden fence with a new wooden fence - this is not a big job, it covers only a small area, not the whole width or length of my property. Any time in January would be great.

St George's Anglican Church annual carol service is on again. And we had so much fun doing it differently last year we are going to do it on the lawn again.

Our carol service this year is on Sunday December 18 at 4pm, outside on the back lawn beside the church.
It will be a celebration of carols ancient and modern, from Aotearoa and far away, including many of your favourites.

Some carols will be sung by the choir and some by everyone.
Bring your own blankets and chairs. Some seating will be provided.

Join us for supper once the singing has finished.

There will be a road separating the two sides. They did ask for submissions a year ago, but as a local living in the area I missed ALL notices as they were in places not frequently visited, and missed being able to submit. Obviously I feel passionate about this as we are frequent visitors of the park with my grandchild, and am upset at the multiple road crossings in the near future. They hope to have Marine Parade a 30km zone to make it safer ( pretty much already this as the traffic is so bad anyway). And it is already a hazard to cross on the best of summer days!!! I cannot think of any children’s parks that have high usage that are separated by a busy road anywhere in the world. This is our rate payer money paying for this work which will be starting on Tuesday. If a child is hit on the road crossing when running from one activity to another will the council take responsibility or is it the parents fault for not adequate supervision??? Open for comments- but even better if you let the council know your thoughts.
They are planning BBQ and seating to go with the walkway which I think is a great idea…but a split park.??? I am no planning genius but have intelligent questions been asked? How many people within a 1000m radius submitted? If the numbers were low - why were they low???
They are also planning on putting in more fencing to protect the fragile dunes. Again rate payer funded. Best use of our rates in the current times???
