Poll: New ramp at council building to increase security
Mōrena kiritata,
Palmerston North City Council is turning its public entrance from The Square into a staff only and disabilities entrance to increase security after the Christchurch terror attacks last year.
The council forked out $64,000 on the changes following advice from an independent security review, even though there's been no incidents of people wandering into the building from the street causing problems.
Is this a good use of money?
-
12.7% Yes, preparations need to be in place.
-
69.5% No, it's excessive.
-
17.8% Maybe, if the review said it's a good idea there must be relevant concerns.

82.1% Yes
-
15.2% No

2.7% Other - I'll share below
