Work together for the Manukau Harbour
Council needs a strong message from all its local boards that boarder the Manukau Harbour to say that the water quality is just not good enough. Please join forces with the other local boards and give a huge shout for improving the Manukau. Together you have a greater voice. Request a deep sea pipeline so that wastewater can cease being dumped into the Manukau.

Complete the Eastdale Reserve (accessible) circuit
There's a walking and wheeling path around Eastdale Reserve but it is interrupted for pushchairs, scooters, wheelchairs and training wheels by stairs at the changing rooms (where it then feels unwelcome, more like part of the building than a public path). The path could continue on the flat in front of the building.

Make Layard St above Avondale Primary a pick up/drop off zone
Now, this isn't gonna be popular with those early birds who like to park here, but at the moment the school pick-up/drop-off situation at Avondale Primary School is dangerous and could end up with someone getting killed. There's only about seven 5 minute carparks for pick up and drop off which is not enough for a school this size. APS is unusual compared with other schools that are usually surrounded by housing. APS parents have to compete with shoppers and commuters for parking, not to mention very narrow streets etc. It would be awesome to have the part of Layard St above the school become a "shared zone" with a drive through area for pick ups and drop offs so that kids could just file out the top gate under teacher supervision rather than dashing across the road, or having to cross Great North Road on their own. This would also fix the issue of people climbing through the fence to cross the road as you could open up the exit from the train station.

Push for Te Whau path to happen. This would create a walk or rideable connection to PT for people from Te Atatu to Green Bay.
Politicians and local board members say they support this so who do we now need to convince to make it happen?
