Loud explosion noise at 3:45am in Hamilton
Anyone else hear a very loud bang or explosion at 3:45am? Seemed to echo around the whole area - much bigger than a car backfiring etc. Heard sirens out on Cobham Drive about 15 mins later. Hope everyone is ok.

'We are re-litigating it' - Dissent coming at city council plan meet
It’s involved significant financial fireworks over conflicting opinions but Hamilton City Council’s 2024-34 long term plan (LTP) is now set to narrowly get the nod for adoption on Thursday.
But several senior councillors warn it won’t all be plain sailing for mayor Paula Southgate and her supporters, even if they have the numbers for their approach.

Fallout from 'abusive' Bydder submission grows
Two dozen code of conduct complaints - an apparent record - have been made to Hamilton City Council over a profanity-laden submission from one of its councillors to Waipā District Council.
The city council late on Monday confirmed 24 code of conduct complaints about councillor Andrew Bydder’s submission - he says as a private citizen - over constructing a third bridge in Cambridge.
The complainants include mayor Paula Southgate.
