Ministry of Transport

West Auckland Airport, Parakai has made an application to the Ministry of Transport to become an airport authority. The powers and responsibilities the Airport has under legislation will change should the application be granted. The Ministry of Transport would like to hear views from the community about this application through a public consultation process.

**Public meeting**
23 May, 7:30 pm,
Helensville War Memorial Hall
Light refreshments will be provided

Please RSVP to ParakaiAirport@transport.govt.nz by 16 May

West Auckland Airport has applied for airport authority status, as it plans to develop the airport, with the aim of attracting a commercial passenger-carrying airline. Part of this plan could include the development of a new, longer runway. It views airport authority status as an important step for future growth, allowing it greater ability to attract new investment for planned developments. We are inviting submissions on the proposal from West Auckland Airport, and you are also welcome to attend a public meeting on this application.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
