Wellington Jane's Walk Saturday 4 May
Join us for a citizen led conversation walking through familiar streets. Starting at Dixon St steps in central Wellington, see the streets with fresh eyes as we look at current issues, old and new buildings, artworks, public spaces and how we use them, and proposals for change.
This is Wellington Living Streets Aotearoa fourth Jane's Walk, in the steps of urbanist Jane Jacob's who argued against motorway destruction of a neighbourhood in New York in the 1960s and won. She believed in the power of the people to help develop and grow public spaces in an organic way.
Several speakers will talk to points of interest along the way and we encourage everyone to take part.
Please RSVP on to our email or at Wellington Living Streets Aotearoa facebook page.
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?

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?
