New bylaw needed?

Rae from Maungaraki

where Council/Developer bylaw or regulation breaches cause hazards such as steep, unretained, tree stripped properties, or infrastructure damage; causing them to slip down or flood onto existing properties, requiring clearing, demolition and/or restoration, that neglect and/or breach of regulations should be remedied at the expense of developers/owners; if not the Councils.
As many current properties from hilly suburbs like Korokoro, Maungaraki, Belmont, Harbour View etc will be at risk from new developments that have not met bylaws and/or regulations I think we need a campaign to ensure bylaw protection from both Hutt City Council, Wellington Regional Council and Wellington Water. What do you think?

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!
