My three nephews and niece are coming to take over our house for three weeks in November. Keen to show them the delights of the local skate park and some gentle mountain biking! If anyone has any outgrown bikes etc that they no longer want cluttering up the garage, I'd be keen to buy/take them off your hands. I'm particularly looking for two bikes with 24" tyres and one with 20". Not looking for anything flash :)

Cheers,

Michelle

Hi, I’m Shannon, a 26 year old kiwi lass and I just got myself a full time job in Glenorchy for the summer. I am looking for a room or whole house to rent in the area and would love any leads on this. I have been a property manager, a guest house manager and I have my own properties so I know what a good tenant looks like - I have become one myself! I am also open to running accomodation (cleaning and administration) in exchange for a place to live. If you or anyone knows of anything I would love to hear from you!

My e-mail is shannon.rose@hotmail.co.nz

I am currently working out of the country so if you would like to speak with me I can find a way to contact you to chat.

Thanks in advance!

Shannon

There are just two weeks remaining to provide your feedback on the draft climate action plan. Do you think it covers everything it needs to?

Make sure you let us know by heading to letstalk.qldc.govt.nz by 31 August to complete the feedback form. If younger members of your household would also like to provide feedback, they can upload pictures, drawings and ideas to the Submit Ideas section of the webpage. 

What is the climate action plan?​

The draft climate action plan proposes a cross-sector collaborative approach with the community, partners and stakeholders to help the district adapt to, and reduce the effects of, a changing climate.

It sets out what QLDC plans to undertake over the next three years, and also how the different sectors in the district working together will contribute to:

reducing emissions

transitioning to a low carbon economy

preparing for the disruptions of a changing climate.

What will happen after the feedback stage?

Community feedback will be assessed and the final plan will be presented to Council. If adopted, the plan will guide decision-making and drive actions going forward - not only for QLDC and the next Ten Year Plan but also for our wider community.

Looking for funding for a community project? Not sure where to start and have a few questions? Come and meet your local funders & discuss your project.

Someone took my bike last weekend. If you have it, please return it to where you picked it up from OR if you know of its wearabouts, please contact:-
