Poll: Should Hamilton City Council shrink the number of councillors?
A political bunfight is brewing over moves to cut councillor numbers on Hamilton City Council.
Potential mayoral candidate Tim Macindoe, supported by four others, has asked Thursday’s meeting to agree to a representation report that covers replacing the current east-west split with one city-wide ward.

Are there roads you don't like to drive on in the Waikato?
Once a year Jeff Penno removes drawing pins from a wall map pinpointing serious and fatal crashes his crews have attended, and starts again.
It’s a poignant reminder that not all our roads are up to the standard of the Waikato Expressway - which is so safe the Waikato road policing manager doesn’t need to deploy his team there regularly.
