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. johnsonville wcc elections2010 places government local-body-elections media Tue, 24 Aug 2010 00:00:00 GMT http://wellington.scoop.co.nz/2010/08/threat-to-johnsonville-property-values-planning-changes-become-election-issue/ Wellington Scoop 2010-08-24T00:00:00Z http://wellington.scoop.co.nz/2010/08/after-the-nominations-the-issues/ Now that the nominations for the October elections have been received, it’s time to consider the issues, and whether candidates are identifying themselves with any of the topics which are concerning the voters. election-candiates-2010 elections2010 local-body-elections media Sat, 21 Aug 2010 00:00:00 GMT http://wellington.scoop.co.nz/2010/08/after-the-nominations-the-issues/ Wellington Scoop 2010-08-21T00:00:00Z http://wellington.scoop.co.nz/2010/08/clear-choice-for-kapiti-says-candidate/ kapiti election-candiates-2010 elections2010 places local-body-elections media Wed, 18 Aug 2010 00:00:00 GMT http://wellington.scoop.co.nz/2010/08/clear-choice-for-kapiti-says-candidate/ Wellington Scoop 2010-08-18T00:00:00Z http://wellington.scoop.co.nz/2010/08/the-knight-and-the-mayor-the-city-elections-start-to-become-more-interesting/ The Wellington election campaign just got a lot more interesting, with a report of a business leader shouting at the mayor during a press conference called to announce that Vibrant Wellington would not be nominating any candidates.
