A second Mt Victoria tunnel in ten years – yes, no, maybe?
- Wellington Scoop
- Wellington Mayor Kerry Prendergast took everyone by surprise this week by enabling a headline which stated uncategorically: Green light for second Mt Vic Tunnel. The headline is in The Wellingtonian, above a report written by Rebecca Thompson. But there’s no evidence of a green light, or even an orange one.

Threat to Johnsonville property values? Planning changes become election issue
- Wellington Scoop
- The Johnsonville Progressive Association has today been describing a basic fear of property owners whose savings are in their houses. The association says that Johnsonville residents are upset by the Wellington City Council’s District Plan Change 72, which councilors will be voting on tomorrow. It fears that the changes will push their suburb down the socio-economic ladder. And if Johnsonville goes down, down with it will go the value of the houses.

Patrol
- Hutt Chick
- wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I arrived at the police station. The others were waiting. I got into the waiting patrol car, and buckled up. I was going out on community patrol in Naenae. Community patrols work alongside police to build safer communities, providing an extra set of eyes and ears. We drove a random route but to some set areas, through schools, up alleyways behind businesses, making sure the streets were safe and providing a visual deterrent for tagging and other crime.

Fields of dreams
- Mark Greening
- But as a coach of a Division 7 football team in Brooklyn, its been a frustrating year with the weather. All to often grounds are closed or games are called off. This is understandable, as its better not to cut the grounds up, and miss out on training or playing on those very same grounds for another 2 weeks or more.

Communication, non-communication
- Wellington Scoop
- Fifteen days ago we reported that the Wellington City Council had breached its design brief for the waterfront. Because this was a serious allegation, I referred it to the council and invited a response. Perhaps, I thought, the council might admit it had made a mistake. But since then: silence. The lack of response seems to be a sort of guilty plea from the council, which is usually quick to speak out in its own defence.

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.

Squidward Tentacles washes up in Houghton Bay

He enjoys playing the clarinet and painting self-portraits. Well, one of his close relatives washed up this rainy morning just down the road from our house at Houghton Bay. Jane helped drag it up the beach.
