Questions to all candidates.
1# Over 70s get a free parking concession disabled mobility card users used to receive this same parking concession, but this was removed some years ago. The disabled community was not consulted before the law was changed.
Why were we not consulted?

I will be lobbying for the return of the same parking concession as over 70s get for mobility card holders would you support this?

Costing quoted at the time of the law change indicated $200,000 per year income from issuing fines and parking charges for disabled people.

If yes excellent if no please explain why not?

Don’t Let Your Mattress Turn Into a Moving Monster!

Marketing Manager from Beds4U - Whangarei

Hey neighbours,

Moving house? Don’t wrestle with your mattress like it’s a wild animal! Big, awkward, and easy to damage, it needs a little strategy - and maybe a friend or two.

Top tips to move like a pro:

1. Measure & clear your path - no doorway dramas.
2. Grab a buddy - teamwork makes it a breeze.
3. Lift smart - bend your knees, not your back!
4. Wrap it up - blankets, plastic, or cardboard protect it along the way.

P.S. If it’s time for a new mattress, our Boxing Day sale is the perfect excuse to upgrade your sleep while you move!
