Invitation to our Annual General Meeting
We are holding our AGM on Tuesday 1 May and would love to see you there. At the meeting, we will outline our activities over the past year, and present our financial statements.
7:00 pm Tuesday 1 May
Kohimarama Presbyterian Church
34 Kohimarama Rd4 Kohimarama Rd
After the formal meeting, we have 3 speakers who will present updates on topics of real interest to our community:
Our local Councillor Desley Simpson will be updating us on the outcomes of the Council's 10 year Budget consultation, including what impact this will have on our rates, and how the extra money raised will address some of the city's problems.
Alan Minson, one of our committee members will talk about our rat catching programme
John La Roche from the Eastern Songbird Project, will explain this project and how it is intended to complement the predator-free islands in the Hauraki Gulf
Kit Parkinson, the Orakei Local Board Deputy Chair, will discuss plans to further improve Kepa Bush.
__
We will be electing a Committee to run the Association, and while most of the current Committee Members are standing for re-election, we would welcome new people to keep us moving forward. Generally, there is not a lot of work involved, although this does depend on the nature of issues that we deal with, and who chooses to be involved in specific issues. We meet monthly for an hour or so to discuss new and ongoing issues, and various members are assigned roles with respect to some of the issues raised. These roles could be as simple as writing a letter, undertaking a mail drop, or for those interested, leading our efforts on a major issue. Generally, the degree of time you put in and the areas you want to be involved in are up to you.
So if any of you would like to be involved and join the Committee, please just let us know by return email with your name, address and contact phone number. Alternatively, we accept nominations from the floor on the night.
Best regards
Don Stock
Chair
Mission Bay Kohimarama Residents Association Inc.

A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟
I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
