New Zealand Waikato Cherry Tree Festival Sep 2020
Target Waikato District Council Preamble We have trespassers to thank for the Waikato Cherry Tree Festival. The desperateness of people to get amongst the cherry blossoms made us want to share this beautiful place with the local community and people. Anne and I (Paul) thought it would be great idea to arrange various multicultural performances and get the community together to celebrate spring. The first year was 2017 and we had a great response from the community. We sold our allowed maximum of

Mandeville Path between McHughes and No. 10 Roads
In our community, we have the gorgeous Mandeville Village and well-supported Swannanoa School. Unfortunately, bike or walking access to both these sites is not particularly safe or enticing due to the often unkempt and difficult-to-bike-on grass verge between McHughes Road and No 10 Road - particularly for children/ families in the wet winter months. I have secured an opportunity to speak to Council next Thursday to request consideration of this project in their upcoming Draft Long Term Plan 202

Instalment of an enclosed dog park in Upper Hutt
As a Upper Hutt resident I would like to get the council to put in an enclosed dog exercise area. Currently I have to travel to Plimmerton or Wellington to access one. An enclosed dog exercise area would be a great space to socialise dogs and exercise them off leash safely.

State highway 35 users against the speed restrictions that come into force on the 8th September 2020.
We are opposed to the permanent speed restrictions, from Pouawa to Okitu (100km/hr down to 80km/h), and the seasonal speed limit being reduced to 60km/hr. We want the speed limit left at the current level, instead other safety measures should be looked at. We believe that the speed reductions will further isolate the East Coast communitys, and only add to fatigue for all road users.

A Desperate Plea to Bring Me Back Home!
Kia Ora, I am a resident of Hawkes Bay and it has been my home for close to 6 years while I work for the Hawkes Bay District Health Board as a Procurement Specialist. I am a staunch believer of the Gandhian philosophy in giving back to the community that one lives in, which led me to serve as board member for Hawkes Bay Multicultural Association, Hawkes Bay Young Professionals and the Napier Toastmasters. Last year I was presented with an opportunity to best serve my community and it was also th

Keep our kiwi right to sustainably harvest wild food
Below is one example of a politically correct and illogical regulation that is going to prevent average kiwis from eating from the wild. Stop this encroachment on our right to responsibly feed ourselves; Because Sea Shepherd have launched a legal challenge in the USA to ban NZ fish exports to the USA (worth about NZ$200 million), the Government is introducing a set net ban out to 4 nautical miles in the Golden Bay and Tasman Bay regions to prove it is protecting dolphins when; 1. There are no M

Sign the petition in support of former Mayor Powell's suggestion for the Minister of Local Government to appoint a Crown Manager to Tauranga City Council.
In the last local government elections the residents of Tauranga Moana voted for a change in leadership at Tauranga City Council (TCC). The residents voted for leadership that reflected the diversity in Tauranga. Acknowledging first Tangata Whenua and the principles of partnership, participation and protection outlined in the Tiriti o Waitangi. Sadly there are some councillors and residents who do not want progress or the status quo to change. This is evident in their opposition to Māori War

Save our local firewood and landscape services provider from being shut down by Auckland Council!
Silverdale Landscape Services Limited has recently been issued an Abatement notice from Auckland Council ... so we only have a couple of months to save our business and our jobs!Unfortunately, even though the complaints made to Auckland Council from a couple of neighbours only relate to the firewood processing part of our business, an Abatement notice requires the entire business to cease as a whole.It's an unfortunate situation when the growth of Auckland City and urban developments threatens t
