Hello everyone,
Many thanks and congratulations to everyone who has signed this vitally important petition. This, in conjunction with a parallel paper petition we have been running in Panmure, has taken us over the 500 signature mark, and we are presenting the petition to the Maungakiekie-Tamaki Local Board at their business meeting on Tuesday.
Time is now tight to get the Auckland Council to stop the sale of the car park, but we are doing what we can to get there, despite the fact that the Council has been determined to do this for at least eight years. Even though the petition is now closed, keep spreading the word to friends, family, neighbours and elected representatives that this is a hot issue for our town and that the sale of the car park will do serious damage to the economic viability of the Panmure Town Centre. The Council MUST LISTEN!
Thanks again for all your support. We will keep everyone up to date with developments.

Hello everyone,
The Stop The Car Park Sale petition will be available to sign in the Panmure Library from Thursday onwards. Library staff advise that there will be a disclaimer notice alongside it stating that this is not a petition endorsed by Auckland Council, but don't be put off by that. The petition is still open to all for signatures.
Also, Auckland Council is planning to start the tender process for the car park sale with the next few days, so time is now critical. Keep spreading the word about the car park to everyone who you think will be interested - both local residents, car park users, and any Panmure business that you go into. We have to keep the pressure on!
Thanks to everyone again!

Hello everyone,
Thanks for all the support shown so far to our online petition. The signatures have now passed the 100 mark, with another hard copy petition we have been running in tandem, now at 79 signatures. That's a great result!
We urge everyone to keep up the momentum by continuing to spread the word about this important issue for Panmure. Whether you work in, live in or just regularly visit Panmure Town Centre, make sure that you speak to as many people as possible - particularly business owners, who be will among the first to suffer if their customers and clients can no longer get parked anywhere near their destination. Just remember - Sylvia Park Town Centre, with its 4500 parking spaces will be more than happy to take all those customers off Panmure!
Thanks again, and keep up the great work!
Panmure Community Action Group.
