Upper Hut doesn't need Housing NZ houses

Upper Hutt seems to have missed out in the building of more Housing NZ houses or for comprehensive renovating of what stock it has.

Currently UH has around 350 such houses as compared to Lower Hutt's around 3350.. And Lower Hutt is where the Government to going to make a concerted housing effort.

But does UP need any more? I say no. UH has enough comparatively cheap housing already.

What UH is getting is a new large housing estate nearby the Trentham Racecourse. And I would like to see apartment-type accommodation inside UH's CBD and greater CBD areas.

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!
