Kaipara District Council plans to demolish 24 pensioner flats and have new ones built - in part because of the high costs of Healthy Homes standards. Do you think demolition is the best course of action? How else can older homes be made suitable?
Mattresses usually last 8-10 years before they need to be replaced. Mattresses are one of the most difficult consumer products to get rid of responsibly. Maybe this is one of the main reasons that they end up on the Curb.

Mattresses are one of the most difficult consumer products to get rid of responsibly. Maybe this is one of the main reasons that they end up on the Curb. But have you ever thought what happens to the old mattress when you leave it on the curb? The size and construction of the mattress create a major problem for the authorities.

Northland MP Matt King is floating a member's bill which would require the criminal history of election candidates to be published, if they were convicted of a crime punishable by two or more years' jail time. What do you think? Would it change the way you vote?

The speed limit review is the first part of a rolling review that Council will undertake over the next two years as part of the national Safer Journey's programme.
Marsden Point, Waipu and Vinegar Hill Road are the first areas to be reviewed and all contain roads where the current speed limit does not reflect the road environment, creating higher risk for all road users. The increased risk is reflected in the crash statistics for these roads.
Northland Transportation Alliance Strategy and Planning Manager, Jeff Devine says speed was a significant factor in 30% of the 733 fatal and serious injury crashes in Northland between 2014 and 2018 and there is a strong community desire to address the issue.
Road Safety and Traffic Engineer, Nick Marshall said that in most cases, a lower speed limit will reduce the number and severity of crashes but will only have a small impact on overall journey times as most people’s average speed on these roads is much lower than the posted speed limit.
Further information on the current speed limit review, including a Statement of Proposal and how to make a submission can be found on Council’s website at www.wdc.govt.nz... or by emailing Council at mailroom@wdc.govt.nz
Submissions must be received by Council before 5:00pm, Monday 9 December.
