Tell us what you think
To sell or not to sell? We want to know what you think about our proposal to sell a 22ha block of land at Parau Farms, Bethlehem, for a housing development.
Originally earmarked for sports fields, the land is close to shops, schools and public transport, which makes it ideally placed to provide much-needed homes for Tauranga residents instead.
If it goes ahead, the proposed housing development would include green spaces and a mix of different types of houses, all designed to create a highly-liveable community. At the same time, we're looking at alternative sites for sports fields, which we hope will still be ready for football boots and referees' whistles around 2026-27 - albeit at a different location.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
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.
