Recycling - glass collection this Wednesday for Brooklyn to Kingston
Recycling update for Brooklyn to Kingston - Wednesday (20/05/2020) is our scheduled date for rubbish and collection in our area. We have been told - hopefully accurately - that since the WCC contractors hand sort the recycled glass into clear, green & brown glass bins into the back of the individual glass bins on the trucks, then emptied into separated glass type rail wagons and taken to the glass factory in Auckland, these are not going to the landfill. This is the latest WCC recycling fact sheet available....wellington.govt.nz...
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.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

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?
