Recycling on the council agenda tonight
Recycling is on the agenda for tonight's City Development committee. The Mayor alerted me last night that the results of the Park Street Recycling Station trial will be discussed at tonight's (4 September) council committee meeting. The report discusses the issues, the costings and makes recommendations about how recycling should be funded in future. Very interesting report which describes how the process works and the issues behind the lack of collections at the weekend. Anyone can attend tonight and there is time for the public to make submissions. The meeting starts at 4.30pm. Please come along. I will be making a submission on the topic.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?
