Poll: What do you think of the wastewater-linked development restrictions?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Developers are questioning whether they want to invest in Hamilton as they let rip at councillors over wastewater related planning brakes that have kyboshed at least 750 projects worth tens of millions.

Matt Stark, who was behind the $25m-$30million MADE market project in Hamilton East told councillors it was intended to be a catalyst for growth but the halt on new builds due to over capacity pipes had stifled that expected flow-on.

Poll: Do you use the district nursing service?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The health system has been accused of breaking the law amid sky-rocketing demand for community-based nurses in Waikato.

This comes as the supply of district nurses lags behind referral increases of more than 100%, leading to staff burn out and an “unprecedented” service failure.
