Poll: Is the Government doing enough now to avoid a serious budget gap in the future? 💸

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Long-Term Fiscal Statement just dropped. At first glance, it might seem a bit dry, but the message is pretty clear ... and a bit worrying. The big takeaway? Our financial pressures are only going to keep growing.

There’s no single fix. It’ll take a mix of solutions to deal with the … View more

Last chance to meet the GWRC Candidates - Tomorrow (Sunday) 5pm

Chris from Hataitai

When you pay your WCC rates invoice, about 20-25 … View moreThe Greater Wellington Regional Council has wide-ranging responsibilities including public transport funding and planning, environment management, flood protection, land management, provision of regional parks, and regional emergency management. When you pay your WCC rates invoice, about 20-25 percent of this is GWRC rates, which, like the city council's rates, have risen sharply in recent years.

Given its range of responsibilities, GWRC should have a more prominent position in Wellingtonians' minds, but 45 years after its inception, it still has a very low profile. Most electors probably give mere lip service to their selection of GWRC candidates. Candidates are often ranked based on name familiarity or party-political advertising, meaning that prospective new and independent input is difficult to achieve.

Last chance to meet the Greater Wellington Regional Council candidates: Sunday 5 October 5pm-6.30pm, Hataitai Bowling Club, 157 Hataitai Rd. An exclusively GWRC meeting, without the "distraction" of mayoral and WCC candidates. All welcome: Come along and listen to and question candidates for GWRC.

For two decades, Aotearoa’s favourite feathery showdown has crowned our top bird ... and the competition has never been fiercer.

Behind the fun is a serious mission. Many of New Zealand’s native species are in serious trouble. Bird of the Year raises awareness of their habitats, the threats they face, and how we can protect our feathered taonga. Important work that we love seeing!

Who was last year’s champ? 🏆 The Yellow-eyed penguin, one of the world’s rarest penguins. But this year, Neighbourly is keeping a close eye on another ocean wanderer: the Tītī (Cook’s petrel).

Who is getting your vote this year? 🐦💛

🗳 Voting closes: Sunday 28 September
🏅 Winner announced: Monday 29 September

We hope this brings a smile!
