A friendly reminder that the one hour free in the CBD parking trial ends this weekend.

From 3 April the rate in the HC2 time-restricted shopping area will revert back to the pre-trial rate of $1.50 per hour.

For the first half of April parking wardens will provide a reminder to people that may be unaware of the change. The one hour free trial was extended following the November 14 earthquake in light of shortages of city-wide parking.

All day parking rates in HC4 zones (including the Riverbank Carpark) were reduced earlier this year to 70 cents per hour, or a maximum of $4 per day.

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!
