Previously the programme has worked with businesses on Enterprise St, Birkenhead, and the Bay Park Pl/Kahika Rd industrial area in Beach Haven.
This past year, the programme has moved to Wairau Valley businesses where it is gaining a positive response and helping to clean up the waterways that lead to Milford Beach. We will soon be discussing extending this programme into the next financial year. #CleanStreams

In April, the Kaipatiki Local Board will be considering a liquor ban here which should help to change behaviour in this park.
A third Queensland fruit fly has been found in Northcote Point, 270m away from the previous find.
