Council representation review begins
The new feature of Māori wards on our electoral map has triggered a review of how general votes are represented by Council.
The year-long process begins with an anonymous survey about how well (or not well) different communities fit in to their wards. How well do you fit yours?
Public feedback may change the number of wards or the number of Councillors. Learn more and participate at the 'Read more' link.
Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?
Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.

Scam caller
Hi all I just received a phone call from 246347198 which had a recorded message stating that my Vodafone contract has been terminated.
I don't use Vodafone so obviously a scam. Just letting everyone know in case 😉
