Poll: What are your thoughts on people living in commercial buildings?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Te Aroha landlord in a battle with the council says evicting a tenant from his commercial building would be a death sentence.

Andrew Bydder - a Hamilton city councillor - says he and his family won’t put the man on the street.

Matamata-Piako District Council, however, is pushing ahead with Environment Court action, and the mayor says she’d be concerned if a relative was living in similar conditions.

The dama wallaby, which had an immature joey in its pouch, was spotted in Frankton on March 3, reported and killed, Waikato Regional Council says.
