Survey about a Marlborough pet memorial site

Christopher from Blenheim

Doing some research to prepare questions for local body candidates prior to the election, I discovered that there are a huge number of pets in Marlborough, and there have been some requests in the past for a pet memorial/burial site, but it's not something council wanted to get involved in. … View moreDoing some research to prepare questions for local body candidates prior to the election, I discovered that there are a huge number of pets in Marlborough, and there have been some requests in the past for a pet memorial/burial site, but it's not something council wanted to get involved in. I'm doing some research to see if it's viable to do privately/commercially, and I've put together a blog post and short survey on my website here: www.marlboroughonline.co.nz...

If you have pets or friends who do, please share the link and complete the survey if you have time so that I can get an idea of interest.
Please share on other social media too.
(I'm not on Facebook because it tends to be too antisocial, and has too much AI generated junk but I know many people still use it.)

Poll: Yay or nay to tourist fees? πŸŒπŸ’°

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

So what’s the fix? Should we bring in a tourism tax or focus on spreading visitors beyond the hotspots to ease the load? πŸ‘‡
