Poll: Yay or nay to tourist fees? ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ’ฐ

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Kiwis love tourism ... it brings in cash and connection. But with more visitors comes more pressure on our beautiful places, housing, and local infrastructure.

So whatโ€™s the fix? Should we bring in a tourism tax or focus on spreading visitors beyond the hotspots to ease the load? ๐Ÿ‘‡

Interested in what kiwis have to say? Andrea Vance shares some opinions in the Post.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
