***update***So it seems that cctv footage, registration number and a name are not enough info for the police to "find out who it is". Crikey I'm glad I'm better at my job than they are at theirs!!! See letter below. What on earth is enough info I wonder!!!

2008 Chevrolet MW .....MDK314.

Yesterday a woman pretended to pay for some plants from my plant stall in Lower Moutere.
Checking the lockbox afterwards we discovered no money and missing cyclamen and hebes. Security footage shows very clearly the woman, her car and rego and the pretend payment. Before I load the cctv footage onto the police website I'd like anyone who recognizes who this is to tell them I'm giving them a chance to put the money they owe into the lockbox.

Also posted on crime and safety board.

Nominate someone in your hood, and your special neighbour could feature on Stuff and Neighbourly as an inspiration to us all. Plus, you’ll both receive a $25 Prezzy card.

Susan Williams from Frankleigh Park in New Plymouth has nominated Kathryn Shaw as a Nice Neighbour. She says:
'Kathryn and her partner Chris spent all Waitangi day replacing and repairing our dividing fence, they did such an amazing job. Chris also brought me a load of firewood when I ran out in winter for which I was so grateful. If I ever need a hand with any heavy work or lifting, I know I only have to ask and they are there. There have been so many instances over the years where Kathryn's help has been given, too many to name. I wouldn't swap my neighbours for anyone else this is why I am still here after 20 years.'

The Government's 10-year includes funding the long-awaited Hope Bypass. However, it doesn't include Rocks Rd, which, under a Labour government plan, was set for improvements including a widened walking and cycling boulevard.

While Labour MP Rachel Boyack has said the road is in "dire need of some love," Nelson's mayor Nick Smith said addressing Rocks Rd was "challenging", and a "distant dream".

What do you think? Was it the right call?
