New 2degrees 5G celltower on Hillcrest Rd at viewing point down to beach

Sarah from Hatfields Beach

2degrees propose to install a huge 5G cell phone tower at/near the trig point on Hillcrest Rd (opp 104 Hillcrest Rd). This tower will dominate the skyline and be clearly visible from almost all parts of the Hatfield’s Beach, including across the northern valley towards Waiwera and southern … View more2degrees propose to install a huge 5G cell phone tower at/near the trig point on Hillcrest Rd (opp 104 Hillcrest Rd). This tower will dominate the skyline and be clearly visible from almost all parts of the Hatfield’s Beach, including across the northern valley towards Waiwera and southern valley to Silverdale. The tower will be visible from almost all the Beachwood Dr subdivision.

This spot is extremely popular with walkers, runners, cyclists and Sunday drivers as a stopping point to enjoy the beautiful view down to Hatfields Beach. Having this monopole installed right here seems a sacrilege.

Consultation with residents by 2degress has been minimal (and dismal) and we haven’t had sufficient opportunity to discuss with them the placing of this tower or the impact it will have on us. 2degrees position is “we’ve decided on the location and that’s final”.

We’re not against all cell towers and concede they’re a necessary part of modern life. However, there must be alternative positions that won’t impact beautiful Hatfields Beach as much as the proposed one.

The resource consent application number is LUC60454144. This is at APPLICATION stage NOW i.e. it’s in front of the planners, who are making decisions NOW. If you can help in any way, we’d be grateful.

Poll: What are the living costs that are having the biggest (and perhaps surprising) impact on your wallet?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Butter, power bills, and those sneaky surcharges on your card ... it feels like everything’s creeping up in price lately. We’ve seen the headlines, but we want to hear it from you.

Butter, power bills, and those sneaky surcharges on your card ... it feels like everything’s creeping up in price lately. We’ve seen the headlines, but we want to hear it from you.

Overall, Most Kiwis say they’re ‘not prospering’. But, according to Retirement Commission data, some members of our community (women, Māori, and Pacific people) are experiencing worsening financial positions at elevated rates.

Stats NZ tells us that food prices have jumped 4.6% since this time last year, with meat and dairy doing most of the damage. This jump is hitting us all, but groceries are just one part of the picture.

When basic costs keep climbing, the old cost-saving tricks — like bulk-buying or stockpiling on sale — don’t always work. Who can afford to spend more upfront when every dollar already has a job?

We want to know: What costs have caught you off guard the most? What are the expenses that feel impossible to juggle right now?

Poll: No more card payment surcharges – but who should be covering the cost? 💸

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Government says it's scrapping those annoying card surcharges – and it’s happening next year.

Consumer NZ is stoked, saying these sneaky surcharges cost Kiwis around $65 million a year and should’ve been gone ages ago.

But not everyone’s convinced it’s a win. Labour and Hospitality NZ are worried the costs won’t just disappear. Labour MP Arena Williams put it simply: there should not be surcharges for customers at all. But she points out that the Government’s plan does not deal with banks and merchants “who still scoop a big fee”.

Many of our community are rocked by the recent announcement. Retailers warn card surcharge ban could lead to higher prices - the unfortunatel reality is that small businesses are feeling the squeeze along with their customers. In comparison, large retailers pay significantly lower banking fees and ultimately have more leverage at the negotiation table.

💸 So someone still pays – but who?
