In September there were 36 permits issued for new homes and 11 permits for re-siting houses. Te Awamutu Ward, which has lagged behind Cambridge and the rural Waipa wards in recent years, led the way with a total of 14 permits for new homes over the two months. ‘Windy 50’ on Organisers of this year’s Te Awamutu Harcourts Christmas Parade are proceeding with a new event for speedy seniors.
