Poll: Does Nelson need more traffic-slowing measures outside its schools?

Amy Ridout Reporter from The Nelson Mail

Parents and teachers at Nelson South Kindergarten say Kawai Street is being used as a rat run for commuters bypassing Waimea Road. With more traffic on Nelson's suburban roads than ever before, do we need more traffic-slowing measures around schools and kindergartens?

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
