Poll: What should the council do with the modellers pond?
What do you think should be done with the pond? And what are your thoughts on the long search for a solution? Let us know in the comments!
The council has once again come back to the drawing board for clearing out the Modellers Pond, and is looking closely at partially filling in the pond with concrete. This will make the pond easier to clean so it can be used by modellers and won't be an eyesore.
Its function as a storm-water catchment is unaffected by weeds.

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
