noise control tonight
dear neighbours please be aware that our beloved
council has deemed it all right again this year to not
take party noise complaints from 6pm till 2am
I have contacted one of local councillors who did not about this until reading it in the Herald as well today
we like dozens of other residents had an issue last year
with party noise that never stopped till 7am, after 2 officers came after 3am and 4am and found the noise
not excessive although we are 5 houses down and on the
other side of the street.an officer finally shut them down
at 7am resulting in some members of my family being
unable to go to work the next day after being awake all night
If you also find this ludicrous please email your local
councillor
I rung council on Friday to enquire if it was in this year
I was told no, now see it in the herald
along with their new rule about noise requiring you to
call back in half an hour if it is before 8pm is absolutely
stupid and allowing a minority to do what they want at the
expense of those who have respect I feel sorry for anyone
with small children
while I undersand it is only NYE if like last years can take
over an hour to get through at 2am then another hour
at least to send someone who is most likely deaf
we rung last year at 2mins to 2am was informed it was not yet 2am and were cut off ,took another hour to contact again
please be aware of this amnesty
our council should be promoting community events not encouraging anti social behaviour
as we are living closer to each other this is a growing issue, to which council don't want to
do anything

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37.2% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.8% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
