Resolution number PPK/2021/160 MOVED by Chairperson B Catchpole, seconded by Member K Mealamu: That the Papakura Local Board: a) acknowledge the Papakura community during the current Delta variant COVID-19 Level 4 lockdown: Once again, our community has stood together to combat the threat of COVID-19. This has not been an easy time, and we acknowledge the personal sacrifices made in lost freedom, increased isolation and increased financial burdens to protect our most vulnerable from the virus. We would like to thank the workers who have taken on the risk of working during the outbreak so that our supermarkets, pharmacies, hospitals and other essential services can continue to operate. We would also like to thank all those who have been involved in the tremendous work undertaken to vaccinate as much of our community as quickly as possible. We acknowledge the community organisations that have provided support to those in need during this time: Takaanini Gurdwara Sikh Temple, Kootuitui ki Papakura and many others – more than can be mentioned here. We acknowledge the Papakura Marae for stepping up for providing increased testing and vaccination services since the beginning of the Level 4 lockdown. This work has also been acknowledged by both Prime Minister Ardern and Mayor Goff. We also acknowledge the parents and teachers who have worked to ensure that our tamariki and rangatahi can continue their education during the lockdown. It is through all our hard work that we have been able to move from Alert Level 4 to Alert Level 3 today. It is by continuing this work that we will be able to beat the virus and return to normal life. |
