Current payment rates are low, resulting in a large number of infringements being referred to a Ministry of Justice court process that imposes additional sanctions on recipients. RIMU partnered with Animal Management to apply behavioural insights to improve infringement letters, with the goal of increasing payment rates.

Auckland ratepayers continually expect better levels of service and reduced environmental impact – as they should. At the same time, the council is under pressure to keep rates as low as possible for ratepayers.

Annual ecological surveys have been conducted at six sites on Te Tokaroa Meola Reef since 2001 by Auckland Council and the University of Auckland. At each site, we recorded the abundance of mobile macroinvertebrates, as well as estimated the per cent cover of sessile macroinvertebrates, macroalgae, and substrate type. This reef monitoring contributes to our regional state of the environment monitoring network.

There has been an uptick in growth in public transport (PT) use since July 2018. Two significant events affected demand for PT in July – a change to the bus network, and the introduction of the Regional Fuel Tax (RFT). Growth in public transport in August and September 2018, compared with the same period a year earlier, suggests the strongest growth has been in the more distant reaches of the city, exactly where you would expect it to be highest given the impact of the RFT on the attractiveness of driving.
