Using the Wellington City Council's FIXiT app
A post earlier today mentioning an increase in tagging in Karori suggests that it may to time, once again, to remind everyone of the Wellington City Coucil's FIXiT app. Anyone encountering anything that requires the Council's attention should advise the City Council by phone (04 499 44 44) or, preferably, via the WCC FIXiT app.
The app is easy to download and, from comments that I have seen, its use seems to prompt a more immediate response than a phone call.
When you install the app it will ask you to give it permission to access your Location, Photos/Media/Files, and your Camera. To use it, you simply open the app and follow the simple instructions, including taking a photo of the graffiti or any other thing that needs attention by the Council.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
