Contractors have laid new paving between the Old Library, the Central Library, Te Iwitahi (our new building) and down Lovers Lane.

The work was part of an overall plan to unite the paved spaces around and between the buildings, connecting them with each other, Cafler Park and the new Lovers Lane Bridge.

Investigating options for rating system

We are currently reviewing how rates are calculated to ensure they are still set in the fairest and most equitable way. If changes are proposed, we will seek community input through public consultation early next year. These changes will not impact the total amount of rates we collect, instead they will affect how we work out everyone’s share.
