Sanity In Suburbia
Guess what Upper Hutt suburb the Wallaceville Estate is in.
Wrong if you said Wallaceville - up til now.
The housing sub division Estate with its eventual 750-odd houses, the first batch being occupied over five years ago, was designated as being part of Trentham.
But it seems commonsense has now prevailed probably within the minds of some UHCC staff, and people living within the Estate will now have to alter their addresses.
But it is not if we have been advised of the change. I wrote to the council only yesterday concerned at the confusion with NZ Post who always had recognised Estate addresses as Wallaceville whereas the council were hell bent on Trentham,
Well the Council quickly responded. LINZ says the entire Estate subdivision with some of it surrounding Trentham Racecourse is part of Wallaceville and this is what was relayed to me by council.
I have always said that the frontage of the Estate is Ward Street alongside Blue Mountains Campus and both Ward Street and the Campus are in Wallaceville.
The confusion of suburbs and where Wallaceville Estate sits had affected many online transactions.
So a whole lot of Estate residents will now need to alter their addresses and this will be messy and time consuming let alone costly if "business" cards also need to be updated.

Advice please, declined house insurance cover
Looking for advice please. Has anyone had any issues reinsuring their homes. Our current house insurance went up by 11.5%, so I decided to get another quote. At the end of a very long phone with Tower, they declined to insurance us, saying our property is a landslide risk. I'm on Wyndham Road in Pinehaven. While the house is up off the street, the house itself and backyard are on the flat part of our section. Now - in the interest of full disclosure - I'm going to have to tell our current insurer too. I've rung the Council to see if they've updated their hazards mapping - and they said the only update has been to the Pinehaven Overflow. Have lived in this house since 2003, and insurance has never been an issue till now. TIA
