Whangārei Central Library Flooring Replacement

Ann-Narie Petty-OShea from Whangarei District Libraries

The Whangārei Central Library is undergoing a flooring upgrade over the next 3 months, which started on Monday 4 August 2025.
While we will remain open throughout most of the project, the contractors will block off areas of the library. These will be inaccessible to both customers and staff for a few days to ensure everyone's safety and comfort.

The library will be closed for one full day on Saturday 23 August 2025.

We understand this may cause some inconvenience and we truly appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to improve our library.
We are looking forward to making your future visits more enjoyable in a refreshed environment.

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

When tourists take over the streets and parking disappears, where do you find your calm?
Or is summer’s hustle something to enjoy rather than escape?
