I’m incredibly pleased and proud to be able to share some good news with you. As you will be aware the future of the Waiatarua Community Hall and Library has been in jeopardy because of the proposed changes in the Auckland Council Budget Plan. With the current lease and maintenance charges, this proposal would have meant a 6000% increase in costs which would have made it impossible for the Hall and the Library to continue. Yet here’s the good news.
Introducing some new (and not so new) WRRA Committee members. Clockwise from left: Ram Vijapurapu, IT; Grant Longley, Library; Lyn Chappell, Secretary; Cathie Wells, Website & Social Media; Marq Holibar, Vice President; Mark Wager, President and his wife Maria; Erin Kingsleigh-Smith, Newsletter Editor; Kelly Creaghan, Assisting with Events; Chris Fowlie, Treasurer. Thanks to Chris for the photo taken at the October meeting.
