• • Demolition? No!

    • 10 Sep 2024
    • Wellington Scoop
    • Two local experts are arguing strongly against the demolition options in the Wellington City Council’s “single vision” proposal for Civic Square. Not that the council’s vision takes a single stance – but it lists demolition as a choice for consideration.

    Te Ngaengae name for new pool reflects history and environment

    • 9 Sep 2024
    • Hutt City Council
    • The new name for the Naenae Pool and Fitness Centre - Te Ngaengae - has deep links to local rivers Waiwhetū and Te Awamutu and the creation of Te Whanganui a Tara. Hutt City Council today approved Te Ngaengae as the name for the new complex. It was proposed by the Mana Whenua Naming Committee, supported by the Whakatupu Ngaengae Community Advisory Group. Kara Puketapu-Dentice, Tumu Whakarae | Chief Executive Officer of Te Ātiawa Taranaki, Whānui said Taranaki Whānui is honoured to see the new Naenae Pool named Te Ngaengae, a name rich with ancestral meaning.

    Saving the City to Sea Bridge

    • 7 Sep 2024
    • Wellington Scoop
    • Demolition of the City to Sea Bridge could be imminent, if Wellington city councillors have their way. They seem determined to proceed with demolition without further consultation with the public, though consultation is planned in the “single vision” document released this week. At their briefing last Wednesday on the future of Te Ngakau/Civic Square, some councillors supported and not one objected to a proposal by staff to seek legal advice on whether the Council ‘has to’ consult over demolition.

    • Salient
    • While Metlink reports an overall 79% satisfaction with its public transport service, public transport advocacy group Better Buses Ōwhiro Bay (BBŌW) argues their suburb is being left behind. Mimicking the questions Metlink uses during its satisfaction survey, BBŌW’s own survey found 84% of Ōwhiro Bay residents were dissatisfied with the coverage the suburb receives. Comparatively, only 10% of Metlink’s region-wide survey recipients expressed dissatisfaction.

    Cooked, served, ate

    • It’s 4:45 PM on a Wednesday night. Across the city of Wellington, hospo workers are preparing for the dinner shift. They are setting tables, wiping down bars, and fixing kegs. If you’re reading this article, you’re probably a student, and the chances are you’re all too familiar with this ritual. Equally familiar is the pre-shift briefing. Depending on the temperament of your manager, this could sound like anything from group therapy to a fiery military pep talk. Tonight, though, I’ve been invited to sit in on one such briefing for the non-profit restaurant Everybody Eats.
