Newtown Residents’ Association Meeting
Monday 25th May 2020, 7-30-9.00pm, via Zoom

 Our meeting was going to be on Monday 18th May, which is our regular 3rd Monday of the month, but there is a Wellington City Council Paekawakawa Southern Ward webinar to discuss the WCC Annual Plan and Parking Policy at 7pm on the 18th – see below for the details. 

 We have decided to postpone the Association meeting and encourage everyone to attend the webinar. Then we will be in a better position to discuss any submissions we might make as an Association. 

On the 25th May we will meet by Zoom, as there are still significant restrictions on numbers for meetings.  We will email a meeting link to our members and other regular meeting attendees. If you want to make sure you are on the list to get the link please email newtownwellington@gmail.com with ‘Zoom Meeting’ as the subject.

Paekawakawa Southern Ward –
A Kōrero about Your City 2020-21
7-8pm May 18th 

You are invited to join the Mayor and Councillors from our Ward for a Q&A webinar session on the big issues facing the city, and what it means for our community. 

For more information and to register, visit: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/1625242419890892813.  Please note that when you register you will be asked for your questions on the Annual Plan, Parking Policy and any other issues of concern, so it is a good idea to look at the consultation documents first.

In the 2020-21 Annual Plan Wellington City Council are proposing a 5.1% rates rise. Their position is that this balances Council’s loss in revenue against ensuring affordability for rate payers. See more details about the annual plan and other current consultations here: https://wellington.govt.nz/have-your-say/consultations. Submissions on the Annual Plan and Parking Policy will close on 8th June.
