Brook Valley Derelict Prefabs
On the 14th November Rosie Barlett, Manager of Parks & Facilities, Nelson City Council wrote the following in response to my queries:
"The Sanctuary has not exercised the right of renewal for the lease where the prefabs sit so this has now expired. Council has given the Brook Waimarama Sanctuary until 31 December 2019 to remove the buildings."
As you can see from the photo I took this morning they are still there! And there is no indication that they are being readied for removal at all! What is going on?
Poll: Does the building consent process need to change?
We definitely need homes that are fit to live in but there are often frustrations when it comes to getting consent to modify your own home.
Do you think changes need made to the current process for building consent? Share your thoughts below.

Swan plants needed for caterpillars
Hi I am urgently looking for swan plants for the handful of caterpillars I have left. They must be 100% spray free. If you have any, please let me know. Happy to drive and pick up. Thanks
