Poll: Do you like the idea being able to pay more to get a quicker building consent?
They might be about to go into battle for the right to rule Hamilton, but Sarah Thomson and Tim Macindoe were the picture of co-operation and civility in giving city developers a helping hand.
And it’s a consensus that could prove profitable for the Hamilton City Council in more ways than one, with the possibility of selling intellectual property - in the form of a working two-tier building consents process - to other councils for use as a template.

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?

Poll: Have you tried this spot?
Tucked in the heart of Matamata’s farming and industrial business area, Pepper Street Kitchen defies expectations.
The cafe is owned by contracting giant J Swap and located in their Matamata workshop. Originally it was set up just for employees about six years ago, but once word got out around town about the stellar food they switched to the commercial operation.
