The Mount Base Path, move the TCC along.

Peter from Papamoa Beach

As a community we need to push the council to get the round the Mount path fixed. How long does it take in Tauranga, it happened in April 2017. Its a beautiful path and is for everyone. Why does it take so long to repair. Quotes saying it will cost up to $7 million, who is crazy here. I thought the Auckland was good at getting ripped off, seems this council is not far behind. This track is for the people and could be enjoyed more by the people. Local engineers have looked at the work and say they could complete the work for less than $200,000. They say would be completed in less that a month.
Lets get this council into gear. The election is coming up, do we need positive changes. Read Letters in the Weekend Sun 12 July.

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?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
