Changes to kerbside collections this Christmas
Tauranga City Council would like to ensure residents are aware that there are no kerbside rubbish, recycling or glass collections on Christmas Day or New Year’s Day.
This year, Papamoa residents whose usual collection day (Tuesday) falls on these two public holidays, will have collections on the two Saturdays prior instead.
Replacement collections for Christmas Day will be this Saturday 22 December. New Year's Day replacement collections will be on Saturday 29 December 2018.
Residents are advised to put their crates, bins and bags out by 7.30 a.m as usual
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?
