COVID Alert Level 4 - TCC update

Communications from Tauranga City Council

We are currently at Alert Level 4
and we're working through what this means for our facilities and services and will update you as soon as we can. But here's what you probably want to know now:

♻️ Recycling and waste collection
These will continue but assisted services are suspended under Alert Level 4. The transfer station is also closed.

👩‍👧‍👦Parks and playgrounds
Some park gates will remain locked and playgrounds will be closed.

People can exercise under Alert Level 4 but should avoid spaces where you cannot practice safe social distancing or come into contact with surfaces that may not be sanitised.

⛰ Mauao
As parts of the tracks up and around Mauao are narrow and people are not able to safely maintain social distances, it will be closed from 7am and kaitiaki will be on site to remind people not to use the tracks.

🐑McLaren Falls will also be closed to the public.

📞Customer Service Centre
The Centre will be closed but the call centre is available 24/7. You can reach them on (07) 577 7000.

📚Tauranga City Libraries
All our libraries are closed. If you have any items, please hold onto them for now. You wont accrue any late fees. There's also an extensive collection of eBooks, eNewspapers, eMagazines and more available through our digital library at www.library.tauranga.govt.nz....

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.

Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.

Smash and grab

Hayley from Mount Maunganui

Hey does anyone have any home cameras that may have picked up someone smashing my widow outside Cayman apartments between 10pm Wednesday night and 9am Thursday. They obviously were targeting my radar detector.
