The proposed plan sets out a new strategic direction for the city, and includes changes to urban land supply and zoning.

Got an opinion on fireworks? Share it with us

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Is it time to ban the private sale of fireworks in favour of public displays only? Or is Guy Fawkes just a bit of flammable fun?

Would you like to see tighter restrictions on fireworks or are you a sparkler fiend who sees no problem with celebrating safely at home?

ACT leader David Seymour says 20 people could die each year using reusable bags.

"It's coming up to summer and people will be in a hot car with their chicken in a canvas bag ... and suddenly, you've got a real serious case for poor food hygiene."

Food safety expert Steve Flint said it was a valid concern. Read more here

A Dunedin man is to appear in court after allegedly stealing fuel from a farmer's fuel tank.

The incident unfolded at Momona, near the city's airport on Friday afternoon, Acting inspector Craig Dinnissen said.

The farmer noticed a ute on his property, and then later confronted the man who was filling the vehicle's fuel tank.

The man had also taken some of the farmer's tools.

The 26-year-old man was charged with burglary.

Police were also investigating the theft of plumber's tools from a vehicle parked on Willis St.

The passenger side window was smashed to gain access, Dinnissen said.

It was unclear whether the theft was opportunistic or the work of mobile offenders.

Dunedin commuters have been warned to expect the hunt for free, all-day parking to become increasingly difficult in the city centre.

The comment by Dunedin City Council transport group manager Richard Saunders came as councillors at yesterday's full council meeting considered the latest round of proposed parking changes in the city.

The proposal, to be released for public consultation, would result in about 150 car parks around Dunedin Hospital, Otago Museum, the University of Otago and in Vogel St switched from free to $1 or $2-an-hour metered parks.
