Meeting tonight about Significant Natural Areas, is your property affected?
I think neighbours will be interested in this post I found on the Ngaio, Crofton Downs, Khandallah, Broadmeadows Community Group in Facebook:
IS YOUR GARDEN NOW "BACKYARD TAONGA"?
Public Meeting to discuss the Council's Significant Natural Areas (SNA) policy.
Khandallah Town Hall, 11 Ganges Road, 7.30pm Tuesday 20 July
"Significant Natural Areas", or Backyard Taonga, is a Wellington City Council initiative to designate areas of significant biodiversity on public and private land as protected. This will have implications for property rights and values. So far 1693 private Wellington properties are affected, and about 18% of the city's total land area
Mayor Andy Foster and council officers will be present to explain the policy and answer questions.
Organised by the Wellington SNA Committee (WSNAC)

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.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
