Petition re HUGE INDUSTRIAL SHIPPING CONTAINER PARK in Te Puna

Elly from Te Puna

An application for a HUGE INDUSTRIAL SHIPPING CONTAINER PARK on Te Puna Station Road is expected to be lodged any time soon.
If granted, there will be disastrous implications for Te Puna residents and a dire impact on local roads and SH2, with potentially 500 heavy vehicle movements added to the already congested roads.

A petition is started to ask the local government (WBOPDC and BOPRC) to PUBLICLY NOTIFY when this application is lodged, and also states an 'in principle' objection against this plan.

Please sign the on-line petition here: chng.it...

You can read more in this article in Sunlive: sunlive.co.nz...

Thank you!

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
