Thank you for using Neighbourly
Recently we discussed the progress of the HAC in this Neighbourly thread. The chief executive for the project has now asked WDC for close to $300,000 of financial support in a worst-case scenario with no international visitors in its first year, as reported by RNZ.

The chief executive for the project has now asked WDC for close to $300,000 of financial support in a worst-case scenario with no international visitors in its first year, as reported by RNZ.
I don't want to kick off yet another discussion of the project, because many of us are already tired of the topic, and no matter if we love it or hate it, we're stuck with it now and have to make it work. For that reason I've disabled the replies to this post. I do however think that we deserve to know what additional financial support the project is expecting from us, directly by asking us to "dip into our savings" or indirectly by asking WDC for money to supplement ticket prices.
In any case, I hope that there is a lesson to be learned from the pandemic, to no longer base business models on optimistic best-case scenarios that depend on a lot of people being at a certain place at a certain time spending a certain amount of money.

My name is Ripu, I'm Stuff’s newly appointed Neighbourly reporter for Auckland and Northland. I've worked in Stuff's Auckland newsroom for a year and a half now, and previously covered current affairs and politics.
Neighbourly is growing as a popular tool to access local news and keep in touch with those around us, which we often miss with national media outlets. I'm here to bring you the news closest to you in a role which will work similarly to a community newspaper reporter.
If you have any stories or interesting things happening in your suburb or area, please get in touch!
If you see news posted in your area, please get involved and reply with your comments/thoughts on the issues at hand.
Thanks in advance and I look forward to chatting with you all.

She paid a good deal for it some years ago but now her piano is now for sale so we have a reduced rate due to time constraint needs to be taken by the end of August. Pick up at Kokopu, west of Whangarei. Shipping to be arranged by buyer. I do not know the weight and have not measured it but it is standard size. The piano stool has good storage under the seat which lifts up and is part of the sale. Measurements are: 510 mm deep(width of back of piano to front of piano) x 1370mm long (width of piano lengthwise) x 1180 tall (Floor to top of piano).
The piano will need a retune after moving but was regularly tuned by Chris Davidson. No sticking or missing keys- in good order. Needs to be sold by the end of August. I can be contacted on 0221060310

We have high standards and our bakers do too, which is why there are multiple quality checks in place at the bakery and only the best looking buns make the cut.
We use less than a teaspoon of sugar in each of the buns which gives them the colour and texture that makes them perfect for burgers.
