How do you see the future?

Upper Hutt City Council

We’re working through a review of our District Plan and are proposing some big changes for residential and rural development. It’s called Plan Change 50. We’re seeking your feedback on our draft proposals now.

Two areas of significant interest for our community will be the high and medium density residential zones. We’re proposing to dramatically increase the level of intensification across the city.

To read the fact sheets for both of these zones and to share your feedback, go to letskorero.upperhuttcity.com/pc50

Feedback closes 30 August 2021. Find out more

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

HAS CNN GOT IT RIGHT

Michael from Trentham

Set the scene:

CNN today showed a preview of a movie about reforming Pope Francis and the clips ended with a riled up Pope raising his voice to a person - maybe a Bishop or Cardinal - inside the Vatican in Rome.

Immediately after this came on screen the headline: SINNER LEADS ITALY TO WIN IN DAVIS CUP.

Jannik Sinner is a member of the Italian tennis team.

Gave me a laugh.
