This year's prizes are up for grabs, so it's time to send in the photos and the stories behind your man caves, she sheds, clever upcycled spaces, potty potting sheds and colourful chicken coops.

Being a dog owner I found out today that this was the case.
I question Auckland Council's policy of no notification in relation to Council's obligation under the Local Bodies Act to consult with ratepayers, in particular dog owners.
It appears that the Regulatory and Safety Committee had feedback from a survey of various organizations in March 2024. The bylaw changes that the committee decided on were, it is reported, put out for public submissions beginning December 2024. As a registered dog owner I have only found out about this on January 21st through a RNZ article.
Nothing about this in the Annual General Report June 2024.
There is no data from the March 2024 survey to back this up so who is running the show. Animal management? Committee Chairperson? Committee ( where is the report/survey) Council?
Mayoral enquiry sent.
