Madills Farm bike track
Notice to the Kohimarama community: Council officers have conducted a comprehensive health & safety assessment of the unauthorised bike track at Madills Farm Recreation Reserve, the results clearly show unacceptable levels of risk for both users of the track and visitors to the reserve, as a result the track needs to be removed. Whilst we understand that the track has been a great respite for children and parents during lockdown, we cannot overlook the health & safety assessment, damage to the reserve or concerning levels of antisocial behaviour at the site. In the new year we will work with the community on how to increase/improve bike activity opportunities. We request that Madills Farm is now left to regrow and recover. Any materials at the track site which owners want to pick-up, should be removed before Monday 6 December.

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!
