Have you heard the news about this Flagstaff project?

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

Plans for a controversial social housing development in Flagstaff have been put on ice as the country’s biggest landlord reviews a series of planned housing projects in Hamilton.

The 60-home Kāinga Ora housing complex on 1.9 hectares of vacant Crown-owned land in Endeavour Avenue, next to the Flagstaff shops, was originally set to be 70 two and three-storey homes but was scaled back after feedback from the community.

Poll: Are you worried about safety and crime in your neighbourhood?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

An 84-year-old was left www.waikatotimes.co.nz...
|feeling insecure and vulnerable in one of Hamilton’s “bad neighbourhoods” after police cut down her wire fence chasing suspected robbers|.

More than four months after the incident the woman, who mostly lives by herself, says she is “disgusted with the police” and their lack of action - especially as her section backs onto a gully often used as a thoroughfare for people up to no good.

In a strange twist, police contacted her son about the repairs only hours after being approached by the Waikato Times for comment.
