Would you prefer angled parking at the Pukekohe train station?

Briar Hubbard Reporter from Franklin County News

Hey Neighbours,
Are there any train users here that struggle to find parking at the Pukekohe train station, particularly on Station Rd?

What is the longest distance you've had to park away from the train station?
What problems does this pose for you? (Ie missing the train, getting drenched in the rain)
Do you think having marked angled parking would be better, in terms of fitting more cars into the same amount of space?

Would it be easier than parallel parking?

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
