Hi neighbours,
Thank you to everyone who submitted questions about their sickly plant babies. Houseplants might be fashionable, but they can be tricky to get right. Whether it’s the wrong light, too much or too little water, or a pesky draft, it doesn’t take much for your prize peace lily to turn yellow or an infestation of bugs to set in.

We put some of your houseplant questions to the plant doctors from Kings Plant Barn to diagnose. Find their answers here.

Another leaky building owned by the Kāpiti Coast District Council has been closed.
The Te Newhanga Community Centre was revealed to be affected by leaks, water damaged infrastructure, and toxic mould in 2019, months after another council-owned building, the Waikanae Public Library, was shut for the same reason.
Despite a call from a then-councillor to close the building for health reasons, the community centre remained open to the public. Nearly two years later the council has announced it will be shut until it can be rebuilt or replaced, after testing showed the amount of dangerous mould and moisture damage had increased.
The council said it was committed to rebuilding or replacing the building, proposing setting aside $5 million either this year or 2022.

‬But we do need to increase our prices. As of 1 April 2021 we need to charge a bit more for the power lines in the Kāpiti-Horowhenua region.

We don’t want to but the world has changed and we have to adapt. Keeping our teams safe and your power on, no matter what. The increase is about the cost of a jar of jam a month (approx $2.50). Rest assured our bills are amongst the lowest in the country.

BOY AND MAN RACERS

Please let me know if these humans annoy and concern you as there are alot of children and pets in and around Raumati, one car has already bowled into someones fence as the 'boy' lost control thankfully not killing anyone or pets but what more does it take before the authorities do anything, does someone actually have to die first? this is not being proactive, only reactive and then its too late. I have raised it with Kapiti College as it can stem from students sometimes but there is no finger pointing here as i have seen males of all ages 'fly' down Hillcrest rd and you only have to see the donuts & burnups marked on the road yet the City Council and Police won't do anything about it ie Speed Humps even when this stretch of road has a school college enter/exit driveway and car park.

Hi neighbours,

Want to know when it's your turn to get the Covid-19 vaccine?
An online tool (click on Read More) which can help New Zealanders figure out which vaccination group they’re in has been released.
The questionnaire is available on the Unite Against Covid-19 website.
Users answer a short series of questions about their health, location, job, and life situation.
The results tell them which of the four main vaccination groups they’re in, and when they can expect to get their vaccine.
Director-General of Health Dr Ashley Bloomfield said the tool also provided more information about who is in each group.
“So if you’re a healthcare worker or work in a long-term residential environment, for example, it will provide an indication when you can expect to get vaccinated.
“You don’t need to provide any information that could be used to identify you, and the information you do provide isn’t saved once you leave the web page.”
The ministry said it was in the process of being translated into 24 languages, which would start to appear on the website from Monday.
The website page and online tool will be updated as the vaccine roll-out plan scales up.
“As we move through the roll-out of the vaccination programme, we want people to be as informed as soon as possible about when they can expect to be vaccinated.
“This tool is designed to make that as easy as possible,” Bloomfield said.
