Trade your old lifejacket in for a new one this summer!
Thanks to Coastguard New Zealand, members of the community have the opportunity to swap their old lifejackets for great discounts on new ones this summer.
The Old4New van will be at the Bowentown Boating Club on Wednesday, 19 December, 3pm-6pm and at the Maketu boat ramp on Monday, 28 January from 1pm-4pm. Coastguard recommends lifejackets older than 10 years should be replaced, so check in with your current lifejackets and make the change if need be!
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.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?
