Dog owners: your Early Bird Reminders should be coming out to you from 13 June.
Remember, the reduced fee is available until the end of July. You can register and pay online at: aucklandcouncil.govt.nz. You can pay in person at the service centre desk.
All Responsible Dog Owner Licence (RDOL) holders are eligible for reduced fees. If you haven’t applied for an RDOL before, now is a good time to look into it.
If you would like to set up a myAUCKLAND online account – to manage all your Auckland Council services and requests – but need help, ask library and service centre staff.
Your myAUCKLAND account will help you:
· Pay your rates
· Manage your dogs
· Report a maintenance problem
· And more.
Children’s events:
Kids Time is now on Wednesday mornings, from 10 - 10.30am.These sessions are aimed at under-6s and their grown-ups. Each session is different, as we adapt to our audience. One week, we’ll have a lot of babies. The next, a heap of four-year-olds!
Covid-19 adaptations:
· Adults are required to wear masks
· The shelves are moved to make more space
· Family bubbles are asked to maintain their bubbles, and keep physical distance from other bubbles
If you are concerned about bringing your children in for a group session, please let us know. We may be able to arrange a one-off session, just for your bubble, at a time that suits you, and us.
