Dodgy footpaths? The inspector's coming
Dodgy footpaths are a constant source of complaints, but now there's a man on a scooter checking out pavements across Hamilton.
Voltaire Villalobos and his three-wheeled scooter will cover more than 1000km of pathways, looking for parts that are uneven, cracked, or crumbling.
He stays away from schools at peak hours though, because all the kids want a go on his scooter.
Have you seen him out and about?
And did you know that Hamilton City Council had a $2.3m budget for footpaths in 2017/18? It's set to increase to $5.1m for 2018/19.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
