Police Helicopter New Flight Path
Since they moved the police helicopter base to Onehunga earlier this year I've noticed a huge increase in overflying of the New Lynn area. The noise pollution from this can be very annoying, especially on days like Christmas Day when we should be able to expect a bit of peace and quiet. It's almost become like living near an airport. Sometimes it flies over 10 or more times in one day including up to 3.30 am or later. I don't remember any consultation over this new flight path and the resulting effect on our property values!
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?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
