Waikato District Council Waste Management and Minimisation Plan

Greg from Ngaruawahia

Council are reviewing waste management and minimisation in May. Now is the chance to push for 1 'free' bag/week, additional bags would then require a sticker, saving a whole lot of hassle for nearly everyone. I have created a poll on the Ngaruawahia Noticeboard Facebook page. Currently 335 people have signalled that they prefer to have the first bag 'free'. 13 people liked the current sticker system. If you have a Facebook page for your location, perhaps you would like to create a poll for your neighbours and copy in your local Councillor. By the way, an additional 172 people would like to see wheelie bins supplied rather than using the black plastic bags.

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!
