It includes Kapiti Coast, Porirua, Wellington City and the Hutt Valley. Principal Rural Fire Officer Craig Cottrill says this means anyone wanting to light an outdoor fire will need to apply for a permit and follow the conditions listed on their permit.
"The ground is getting drier and fire danger has increased,” he says.
“The dry vegetation acts as fuel for a wildfire, meaning if a wildfire did start it could spread very quickly. We’ve seen this with a few vegetation fires in the area recently, including one in Makara last month where firefighters and helicopters worked hard over two days to put it out.”

hi, I'm hoping someone knows where I can get a couple of hanging seats redone with cane weaving. I've tried furniture restorers but they don't do this or know of anyone who can do it. Getting desperate as they are getting to the point where we won't be able to use them 😕 … View morehi, I'm hoping someone knows where I can get a couple of hanging seats redone with cane weaving.

Useless and incompetent. I placed an order in-store, when I got home my son only got half of what he ordered and I'd paid for it.

I placed an order in-store, when I got home my son only got half of what he ordered and I'd paid for it. I phoned and complained, they took my details and told me they would give me the missing items next time I made an order. Ten days later time was today, they had no record of my complaint and refused to give me the missing items. Not the first time they've messed up my order. Very poor service.

Principal Rural Fire Officer Craig Cottrill says permit holders should follow the instructions provided carefully.
"The dry vegetation acts as fuel for a wildfire, meaning if a wildfire did start it could spread very quickly... We’ve seen this with a few vegetation fires in the area recently, including one in Makara earlier this month where firefighters and helicopters worked hard over two days to put it out," he says.
What you need to know:
- The restrictions cover the following areas: Kāpiti Coast, Porirua, Wellington City and the Hutt Valley.
- You cannot light an outdoor fire unless you have a permit.
- Gas and charcoal barbecues are permitted.

We want March to be all about celebrating the connections we have while making new ones along the way. As we all know, what makes a neighbourhood great isn’t the houses and cars, gardens and streets - it’s the people who share their presence and aroha with each other.
A wonderful way to take part is to participate in Neighbours Day Aotearoa which takes place from 20 - 30th March. This year’s theme is ‘The Great Plant Swap’ - as an easy way for our neighbourhoods to grow stronger together. If you’re hosting an event, make sure to register it on their website: neighboursday.org.nz/join-in
Show us how you’re celebrating community this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to: info@neighbourhoodsupport.co.nz
