Rates rebate applications closing soon (Includes many pensioners)

Lynette from Waikanae

"Rates rebate applications closing soon
We know some people can find it tough to pay their rates.
If you’re on a low income (most pensioners) or get a Working for Families tax credit, you might be able to get help from us or the Department of Internal Affairs to cover some of your rates or water rates.
Closing date for applications is coming up soon. If you meet the criteria, make sure your application is submitted by 30 June 2022.

Help can be found at most libraries and KCDC front desk
Its worth the effort to make an enquiry.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
