Poll: What are your thoughts on a 60kph speed limit?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

In a significant u-turn, a majority of people surveyed are now supporting a speed limit reduction on Wairere Drive that is part of consent conditions for a major new Pak’nSave supermarket in Te Rapa.

Wednesday’s city council traffic, speed limit and road closure hearings panel is due to hear and consider verbal public submissions on the issue and prepare a report for consideration by the next full council meeting on 30 April.

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Crown-owned subsidence property has come on the market, but whether potential buyers reckon it’s a bargain or risky buy is yet to be seen.

While some might view the Huntly east property as a bargain, Huntly real estate agents reckoned living on top of the mining zone makes some buyers nervous they’re going to “just sink one day”. Although, the agents are fairly confident the area is safe.

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
