Following requests from the community, the council investigated and approved a new drop-off facility, located behind the Cust Hotel. It is the first of its kind in the district, and will be trialled for one year.

"If this goes as well as we hope, not only will the service continue, but it's possible we could provide drop-off facilities in similar rural areas of the district, who don't receive a kerbside collection service," councillor Robbie Brine said.

The Cust Community Network, along with residents, joined mayor David Ayers and Brine at 2pm on Sunday to celebrate its opening. The centre will be open to the public from Monday and will be open seven days a week between 7am and 10pm.

Noisy Resturants

Corran from Rangiora

If there’s one restaurant I avoid it’s Winne Bagoes. The one and only time I‘ve been there I had to SHOUT just about make myself heard. So, I guess I can now go back to Plough and hopefully have a nice meal in the quiet after they had to quieten down the music due to the neighbours.

A North Canterbury councillor at the forefront of a campaign for childcare subsidies for elected officials says she is disappointed her fellow councillors chose to vote against the policy.

According to the minutes from the meeting, councillors agreed the district was a "mostly rural district with many hard working residents who continuously contribute to their communities through volunteering or performing acts of public service without remuneration or parental help".

Cellphone bills, internet use and mileage allowances are already covered by the Remuneration Authority.
