Upper Hutt Business Continuity Planning Workshop
There are still a couple of spaces left in the workshop tomorrow night! Head to www.getprepared.nz... to register.
---------------------
Disruptions can happen at any time! Whether it’s the seasonal flu, the power being out a couple of days, or a significant event like the big quake, you can plan for disruptions to help minimise the impact on your business. This workshop steps through some key considerations for you and your staff so you will be better prepared in the event of a disruption.
Upper Hutt business owners or a staff representative are invited to join us for the workshop from 5:30pm on Tuesday the 22nd of October for drinks and nibbles at Expressions Whirinaki Arts and Entertainment Centre. There will be an opportunity to explore the Beyond the Cordon exhibition prior to the workshop commencing at 6pm.
Poll: Does the building consent process need to change?
We definitely need homes that are fit to live in but there are often frustrations when it comes to getting consent to modify your own home.

Lest we forget...
On this ANZAC Day, let's take a moment to remember and honor the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our country.
Tell us who are you honouring today. Whether it's a story from the battlefield or a memory of a family member who fought in the war, we'd love you to share your stories below.
Upper Hutt Rates Increases.
Please excuse if I am posting this where is shouldn't be. Admins, do remove this if its not appropriate.
I have not done anything like this before so please excuse if my wording isn't quite right.
As most of us are aware the Upper Hutt City Council have proposed to raise their Rates by near on 20% each year over the next 3 years.
If your UHCC Rates are around $2500 per year, after the 3 years of increases they will be approximately $4300 which equals an extra $35ish per week. This will not only hit homeowners, rentals, hirage of venues etc but will be impacting the community as the costs will be passed on with such large increases over a short period of time.
As I am outraged about this, I have created a petition on change.org to hopefully be able to show the council how many are not for these massive increases in a short period of time.
If you would like to support this petition please go to the link and add your voice.

Thanks in advance.
