Come and talk to us!
We’re looking for people to join one of two reference groups for Plan Change 48.
As part of continuing our review of the Landscape and Ecology chapters of our District Plan, we need local knowledge to help refine our direction to ensure that the planning response supports our community’s wellbeing and our environment.
We’re now seeking expressions of interest for membership on two community reference groups as part of the extended pre-consultation, a suggestion made by speakers at a recent Council meeting.
The proposal is to have an indigenous biodiversity reference group and a separate reference group for important landscapes.
Interested? Go to upperhuttcity.com/pc48 to find out more. Expressions of interest close on 15 October 2021 ⏰
HAS CNN GOT IT RIGHT
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.
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?
