- Keith Johnson
- FROM 'A' TO 'X' VIA 'RR' AND BACKI went along to the Strategy and Policy Meeting of Wellington City Council today, as I have an interest in the integrity of its Assessment of Alternative Options for Transport Improvements at Wellington’s Basin Reserve.

Little Blue Penguins Plucked and Toasted - Te Kopahou Two Years On
- Keith Johnson
- PENGUINS GIVEN THE BIRDBack on March 1, 2010 I ran a story with the title ‘Te Kopahou (Red Rocks) Reserve - Experts take on Penguins’ about the battle that was then raging in the Environment Court here in Wellington about an application by the Wellington City Council to rezone for residential use some land at the entrance to the Nature Reserve.

Island Bay's Creative Talent - Two More Stunning Examples
- Keith Johnson
- Jordan is a typical multi-facetted, multi-tasking Gemini from Canada. Immaculately qualified, with degrees from Queen’s University at Kingston and Windsor University, Ontario and a PhD from the University of Auckland, she has held a number of high level public service research and management posts in the transport and housing sectors here in Wellington. She is also one of Island Bay’s irrepressible entrepreneurs, embracing innovation and constant personal reinvention.

Roundabout Rigmarole
- Keith Johnson
- The sauce is still flying as Wellington tries to choke down the meat ball and spaghetti junction that constitutes Wellington's Basin Reserve Road Interchange. In a cold serve from public officials and politicians, the public is (as often) being given scraps served on a dirty plate - but left with an empty feeling and an empty pocket. I’ll try to make some sense of the real issues, just for the record.

The people of Island Bay need this bookshop

Not a monkey on your back - more of a Kiwi
- Keith Johnson
- I was bowled over by the ongoing exhibition of paintings and drawings by Graham Percy at Wellington City’s Art Gallery – these have a truly delightful whimsicality that plays on contrasts between the supposedly rococo intricacies of European history and the ostensibly mundane life taking root in Europe’s most far-flung offshoot.

- COSTS ON THE HEAVY SIDE FOR LIGHT RAILFurther to my post of 6 July 2010 ‘Light Rail and avoiding a Heavy Burden’ and the recent election of our new ‘Green’ Mayor of Wellington on a Light Rail development manifesto, I will be keeping a strict eye on cost issues on behalf of ratepayers over the coming months.

Muddy Mess in Wellington Soccer
- Keith Johnson
- Sam Buckle from the action group Yellow Fever wrote to me recently as follows: I am one of the guys who organises Yellow Fever, which as you probably know is the supporters’ group for the Wellington Phoenix. But it's also a hub for people involved in football in and around Wellington – people who are frustrated about the state of our sports fields.

Laying a campaign trail
- Keith Johnson
- I am afraid that I have become caught up in my electioneering – such that I have now committed myself to walking every street in the Southern Ward, dropping a calling card in every letter box, and talking in an open and friendly way to those fellow citizens who are out and about. Since I am largely a house husband at present and the boys are at school, my week-day mornings are pretty much free. So the map is a report back on progress so far.

Wellington City Council – Little Miss Muffet and Pinocchio
- Keith Johnson
- Just to follow on a little from my previous story about the Te Kopahou (Red Rocks) Reserve and the alleged treasonous behaviour of the voting public in Southern Ward in wanting to preserve its integrity. At the Strategy and Planning Committee meeting that I attended a couple of weeks back, senior Councillor Andy Foster (who is a sort of Pinocchio look-alike Muppet) laid it on heavily that the community owed the Council for the $750,000 that it had spent in purchasing the obsolescent Owhiro Bay Quarry for the Reserve.
