Don comments .....
A few months ago my team led by Sergeant Gwilliam initiated a quick response approach focusing on local retail crime in Onehunga.
We have seen an amazing result considering all the other demands that community policing require of our team.
Check points will increase in Auckland over the next few months for drivers to take a roadside evidential breath test.
Don has put information on "Trees and boundaries in relation to trimming" & "Can I cut back branches or roots encroaching from my neighbours property" "What can I do if a neighbour’s tree is dangerous or blocking the view or light?" "Who pays for the work if the court makes an order to remove or trim a tree? " " What if the neighbour doesn’t carry out the court order? "
Onehunga Community Patrol - what they do and how to join.
This is a very worthwhile & helpful community activity.... check it out if you feel you'd like to help.
Stay safe and Spring is here with lambs and blossoms

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.2% No, I enjoy it
-
1.8% Other - I'll share below
Don't overthink this riddle...
I have a silver sole
but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?
