These opportunistic thieves lurk behind vehicles or circle our streets on bikes, searching for freshly delivered parcels.
Jaime Belsar said porch pirates stole from her 2-month-old baby, Finn, last week. "They're lower than low," she said.

Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.

The lease for the current market at Riverside Park expires on December 31 and the council has identified Northcroft Domain as its preferred location for a future farmers and craft market. However, proposals or alternative sites will also be considered to ensure the ‘best fit’ for the district, and the council is also keen to hear of alternative or unique ideas on how the market could be successful.
Mayor David Trewavas said the Taupō market was an important part of the social fabric of the community. “We absolutely see value in having a market and we are excited to see what proposals come forward,” he said.
Calls for expressions of interest are sought from anyone interested in organising and/or managing a vibrant market environment for all the community.

Hi neighbours,
The National Road Carriers Association recently put a call out on its Facebook page for people to start sending them photos of potholed and cracked highways.
They want to show the Government how poor local roads really are.
So are there any roads around our region in need of fixing?
