Need some information please
Further to having presented the petition for a Call To Action On Housing In Kapiti, I am presenting an oral submission in Parliament in the first week of May and need to have oral evidence of the price of rentals. I need to ask people in this group to let me know the price they are paying for the following; 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom, 3 bedroom, 4 bedroom and if there are any rentals of more bedrooms. If you don’t feel comfortable commenting please message me. Other facts I would like to present are how long it took you to find a rental, had you been homeless, are still homeless or have recently become homeless. Does the rental have a property manager and do you know if it is the Property Manager or the owner who raises the rent? Often the Property Manager will say that the owner has asked for the increase but often the Property Manager puts it to the owner that they can get a higher rental as that is the going rate for rentals. By doing this the Property Manager can collect a higher rate for managing the property. Any other problems or issues would be good to present as well. I will only be giving the issues and no names will be mentioned. Please feel free to private message me with any other issues you may have

Mid February: very warm, very dry, & very sunny
I’m sure that comes as no surprise to anyone with only the slightest interest in the weather, but will it continue, I wonder?
February has been similar to January which was also dry and sunny, but was slightly cooler than average. However, February with a daily average temperature of just under 25ºC is running a degree warmer than the forecasts, and the second warmest in 15 years, with only 2016 being slightly warmer.
With no rain at all it’s as dry as 2019 and there has been 11 sunny days with only one with no sun at all.
For some, summer is over at the end of the month (two weeks away), but March with an average temperature of around 22.5 ºC it's still summer in Kapiti.
