Using the Wellington City Council's FIXiT app

Tom Neighbourly Lead from Karori

A post earlier today mentioning an increase in tagging in Karori suggests that it may to time, once again, to remind everyone of the Wellington City Coucil's FIXiT app. Anyone encountering anything that requires the Council's attention should advise the City Council by phone (04 499 44 44) or, preferably, via the WCC FIXiT app.
The app is easy to download and, from comments that I have seen, its use seems to prompt a more immediate response than a phone call.
When you install the app it will ask you to give it permission to access your Location, Photos/Media/Files, and your Camera. To use it, you simply open the app and follow the simple instructions, including taking a photo of the graffiti or any other thing that needs attention by the Council.

Some Choice News!

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!

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
