Building numbers

Susy from Te Aro

This is a plea to all building owners (domestic and commercial) who do not have street numbers. Please put street numbers (clearly-visible) on your buildings/fences/walls, facing the street.

This is a plea to all building owners (domestic and commercial) who do not have street numbers. Please put street numbers (clearly-visible) on your buildings/fences/walls, facing the street.
It's no fun traipsing along streets and roads - especially in bad weather - looking for a property. It must be a nightmare for the emergency services as well.
YOU know where you live; you may also know where number XY or Z are on a busy shopping street. But please don't assume everybody else does.
This is most important for the emergency services who are often called out at night.
It's a small, but important, thing. It's not difficult.

A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.

The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.

The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'

Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
