Kiwis love tourism ... it brings in cash and connection. But with more visitors comes more pressure on our beautiful places, housing, and local infrastructure.
So what’s the fix? Should we bring in a tourism tax or focus on spreading visitors beyond the hotspots to ease the load? 👇

At around 3.15pm on Tuesday 21 October, a man approached a young girl and began interacting with her as she was walking home. We acknowledge the girl who has done the right thing by avoiding the man, making her way home, and telling her caregivers.
We understand an incident like this can be unsettling to the community however, we ask parents to be alert, not alarmed.
Police encourages parents and caregivers to have discussions around behaviours and actions that are inappropriate or that make a child feel uncomfortable. This enables them to identify behaviours that make them uncomfortable, unsafe or scared, and take action by removing themselves from the situation and tell someone they trust.
Police ask those in the Whakatu area who have CCTV or dashcams to please review their footage from Tuesday around 3.15pm, and ask them get in touch with Police if they see any suspicious activity.
We ask the community to report suspicious activity to us as soon as possible by calling 111.
For non-emergencies, or to provide information after-the-fact, please contact Police through our 105 services.
Please use the reference number 251022/0221.

If anyone is looking for bulk items to stock their own shop, or market stall, or just looking for wooden items, I have breadboards, baskets, rolling pins, crates, a bbq chair, hanging and free standing bird feeders, breadboard/tech device stands, decorations etc, please let me know. I’ll open up my garage this weekend for viewing and offers.
I also have lamps and furniture, and electronic RC toys
I desperately need to have a clear out. And, like everyone else, some money for Christmas.
Maybe I have the Christmas present you are looking for.
I’ll post details closer to the weekend. Meanwhile, if you are looking for anything specific, let me know. We can arrange a private viewing.
