WHAT’S HAPPENING OUTSIDE NON SOLO PIZZA?
Vector need to replace a transformer located inside NSP (263 Parnell Rd), as it was installed many years ago. So between the 24th June 2024 and 13th July 2024 they will be replacing new high voltage network equipment at 263 Parnell Road.
During the work period, please expect to see:
• Excavation work on the footpath just outside 263 Parnell Road, which will create noise from time to time and will block a section of pedestrian access.
• A temporary transformer will be placed in the loading zone outside 269 Parnell Rd to facilitate ongoing power to affected properties.
• Parking restrictions and traffic flow - there will be limited parking directly around the worksite to allow their trucks and vehicles access to the worksite. During daytime hours, there will also be a loss of parking on the opposite side of the street in order to facilitate continued two way traffic up and down Parnell Rd. They do apologise that customers may need to be directed to parking further down the street or inside the parking at St John the Baptist.
• Work hours – most of the work will happen between 9am and 4pm, with some work taking place at night (9pm to 6am). The night works are not anticipated to create noise. There will also be two planned outages and affected properties have been notified.
PLEASE SUPPORT OUR LOCAL BUSINESSES THROUGH THIS DISRUPTION!
Non Solo Pizza have to unfortunately close over this period, and will probably remain closed until the end of July as they will use the closure to complete some internal renovations. But most other businesses are trading as usual. Gerome will be trading as normal, 7 days a week, Parnell Gallery will be closed the first week of July, but otherwise trading as normal, and look out for the new coffee kiosk opening at 269 Parnell Rd from 8th July.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
