Census time again.......but did you know that there are changes to how it’s done?

Carol Winters from Age Concern Havelock North

Yep, there’s change afoot to how we will complete the census obligations this year. For most of us going digital is going to be a simple exercise but for a huge chunk of our older community it’s not.
Come along to our Friday morning meeting, the 9th of Feb, to find out what you need to know.

Noise control

Darrell from Flaxmere

Is there a time of day when its fair for noise control complaints to change from someone politely being asked to turn their stereo down?..
to the flip side of say after 12 midnight even if it is the first complaint of the day the stereo is confiscated immediately.

Is there a time of day when its fair for noise control complaints to change from someone politely being asked to turn their stereo down?..
to the flip side of say after 12 midnight even if it is the first complaint of the day the stereo is confiscated immediately.
With the first offence return of the stereo is basically at cost (the cost of the noise control officers time and storing the item) Offence number 2 might incur the item being seized and sold on or destroyed, along with an extra infringement on their rates, this would cover costs incurred without other ratepayers having to fork out extra for noise control, It would also make absent landlords be a bit more careful about who they let into their properties.
I'll be curious to know the views of the Hastings district council, As well as anyone who has knowledge of law.
Final point. Well yes I do admit that the idea I'm putting forward here is basically infringing on other peoples rights, stop and consider this though, I work 12 to 14 hours a day, sleep in the last week has been a bit scarce due to the heat, I get 2 nights of decent rest a week, last night I was woken on and off due to a noisy stereo, Noise control were called in the early hours of the morning. (A very big thumbs up to the lady on the council phone number who was answering phones last night in a bright and cheerful manner) This is not the first time that those particular neighbours have caused trouble in this street, Maybe its time they woke up and started considering others instead of just themselves.
Thanks all in advance for reading this and your contributions.
