What next for our Shared Paths network?

The Team from Whangarei District Council

Come and see us this Saturday (29 April 2023) at the Whangārei Growers Market or Canopy Bridge to give your suggestions on improving walking and cycling.

Or join the 200+ people who have pinned comments all over the online map of feedback: www.wdc.govt.nz...

This isn’t just limited to walkers and cyclists – we also want to hear from walkers with pushchairs, and people who use wheelchairs, mobility scooters, skateboards, skates, scooters and e-scooters! But we're especially keen to hear from people who would use walking and cycling paths in Tikipunga.

We’d love to hear from young people and school students too, so if you know any then please encourage them to give their feedback.

We’ll be at the growers' markets from 7.30am to 9:00am and at the Canopy Bridge from 10:00am to 11.30am to hear your views. We’ll also be at the Tikipunga Markets on Sunday from 7.30am to 9.30am.

Submissions close on 12 May 2023.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
