Poll: Do you think Hamilton's CBD could take pointers from Cambridge?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Car parks back in Garden Place, a weekend market, and better funded night shelters - that’s what a former Hamilton mayor reckons will stop the city’s feral street scenes.

Russ Rimmington is calling for Hamilton city leaders to look to Cambridge and provide the economic drivers to turn the CBD around.

Poll: Do you think an age check is required for these drinks?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Stores are checking IDs for fancy soft drinks and not everyone is happy about it.⁠

One shopper, who asked not to be named, bought some zero alcohol branded drinks at his local supermarket and was asked to “step around into the thoroughfare so a supervisor could see me and make sure I was over 18. I couldn't believe it."⁠
