Environment

I would just like to clarify the issue that the Rakino Ratepayers Association is not against the support of native birds. They are all for the planting of native bush and the removal of weeds and other such measures of encouraging and nurturing bird life. The one thing however that it is not supporting is the banning of cats. This has been decided by a democratic vote. The banning of cats is something that DOC and Forest and Bird have not even contemplated.
