Melissa Smith for City Council West Ward

Melissa from Pukete

Kia ora Neighbourly! My name is Melissa and I'm a candidate for the West Ward in the upcoming local elections. My priorities for the city are better transport, better housing, and action on climate change.

I'm organising some Meet and Greets in the community to chat with voters, introduce myself, and hear your concerns.

I'm feeling unwell at the moment so I don't have anything lined up for this week, but I'd love to know which places/what times you'd like to meet with me next week.

I'll also be at all the Meet the Candidate events over the next few weeks.

Please let me know below or ask me any questions about my vision for Hamilton!

Keep an eye on your mailboxes for your voting papers and make sure to send your papers back by 8 October!

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

It’s been a feature in a recent Hamilton District Court trial , but a Tamahere mansion already has an complicated history.

The property in Woodcock Rd - notable for having a hydroslide in the back yard - the scene of now-disproved alleged sexual offending by Hamilton dentist Rahul Gautam - made headlines more than 15 years ago, when it was a focus in the case of accountant Gary Soffe.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
