NZ Police September Newsletter
Happy Saturday Neighbours,
Here's is our Community Constable Don Allans newsletter for September. We, the public are being asked to be watchful of the Oranga HLC housing development - criminals are stealing the copper and fixture from these dwellings !!
Another problem is youth reportedly tagging the inside of some homes in Oranga and on one occasion set a small fire on the verandah of a vacant home !!!
It's very likely that any apparent tradies wearing high viz clothing ( to look like a tradie) should not be on any building premises after 6pm, they could be criminals. Please contact the Police on 111
Don is also mentioning the prolific theft of tolls from building sites, containers and garages - to help stop this record your serial numbers and take a photo with your phone. Check the site HOIST hoist.world... for your free tool tracker .
All the best, summer is on the way
Regards
Colleen

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.8% ... It is complicated
