Services and facilities in Capital at COVID-19 Alert Level 2
Kia ora Pōneke,
From 11:59pm tonight, Sunday 14 February, Wellington, along with most of New Zealand, will be re-entering COVID-19 Alert Level 2. This will last until midnight, Wednesday 17 February, unless otherwise announced.
It follows the news that in Auckland there are three positive cases of COVID-19. The Auckland Region will move to Alert Level 3 for the same period.
These changes of Alert Level will be reviewed on a 24-hour basis and with daily updates, the first being on Monday afternoon (15 February).
We've been through this before, and it's time for us to unite once again.
For information on how Council services and facilities will operate during Alert Level 2, please visit our website here:

Be kind and stay safe, Wellington. He waka eke noa! 💛

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
