New landscaping service, revamped website and more!
Hello neighbours,
Firstly, thank you for your continued support, especially over the last few years. We've been very fortunate to not be hugely impacted by Covid and have kept working and expanding. We now have four staff who have joined the team to help enhance more outdoor spaces in the Wellington region.
We've also launched a new service: 'property pre-sales', for those that are in the market to sell their property and want to showcase it in the right way for marketing photos and open homes to add as much value as possible. For more information on this and our other services, please visit my freshly revamped website: www.stevesjobs.co.nz...
If we can be of service at your property or your family or friends, feel free to reach out or pass on our details, so we can make more outdoors into spaces people love to spend time in.
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? ๐ป๐จ๐
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
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, weโre 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 โ and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
๐จ Wellington: Is the real summer finally here?
Itโs the talk of the town (and every coffee queue): the Wellington "summer" has felt more like a very long, very damp spring! ๐ง๏ธ Weโve definitely had our fair share of grey skies and raincoats lately.
In fact, The Post reports that our "pretty average" summer has been tough on the local venues and events that usually thrive under the sun. But don't pack away the sunscreen just yet!
The good news? The next couple of weeks are looking a bit more "settled" (the Wellington word for "not a gale-force downpour"). With autumn officially here, now is the time to squeeze every last drop out of the season! โ๏ธ
Any local hidden spots or activities youโd recommend for a calm Wellington day? Drop them in the comments! ๐
