On June 8th we made two submissions to Wellington City Council.

Draft Parking Policy – we approved the parking priorities as outlined in the policy, and said that we want to discuss the details as they apply to Newtown as part of Area Based Planning.

Draft Annual Plan 2020/21- we accepted the need for a 5.1% rates rise, but added that we approve of the proposal to defer rates payments without penalty where this is necessary to ameliorate financial hardship caused by covid-19. We also recommended publicising the Rates Rebate available to low income households. 

We also approved of some other policies, see the full submission for details.
