Proving that down here in windy Welly our Council are making the right decisions with our money. Today sees 2,400 tonnes (about $400,000 worth) of new sand arriving at Oriental Bay beach. Packed in 45 containers, it's from a quarry in Dunedin, where it was especially crushed and sieved, ensuring just the right consistency. Only the best for our neighbours in Oriental Bay.
And what about Wellington's other beaches?
