Slippery slope of city standards

Reporter Manawatū Standard

Tēnā koutou e hoa mā,

Palmerston North's dog pound run by the council isn't up to scratch.

A report showed animal welfare wasn't up to standard sparking questions from central government about the facility's responsibility to the pups.

On Wednesday the council approved a proposal to build a new $3 million facility, as the old pound could not be brought up to compliance standards.

What other standards do you think are slipping around the city?

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
