There's a lot of confusion about our push to conserve water when a bottling company is taking it straight from the ground. We've gone through and answered some frequent misunderstandings.

Be aware, police have identified a new telephone scam targeting New Zealanders. If you receive an angry call from someone seeking compensation for car damages, hang up. To read more, click here.
What you need to know:
- The call will be from an international number that's then redirected through a local number.
- The aggressive scammer could be very convincing.
- Upon answering, they demand money for damages from a vehicle collision they claim you were involved in.
- Police are urging people to warn elderly relatives so they do not fall victim to the scam and lose money.
- If you receive a call of this nature, police advise you to hang up immediately.

In 2012, Ann and Brent Stanaway, wanted to construct a "new and vibrant" building on the site of their former home at the corner of Oxford St and Sumner Rd, rather than a "pastiche" of what the earthquakes destroyed.
But authorities thought the design wasn't a good fit for the heritage town and, after multiple meetings, the couple dropped the idea.
What do you think? How can Lyttelton best balance heritage and new development?

Heavy rain and snow will continue battering parts of the South Island into Friday afternoon, as a spring storm makes its way up the country.
Several highways remain closed, including the major link between the east and west coasts due to a road wash-out.

Electric scooters have been zooming about your city for a couple of weeks now, and we want to know your thoughts on them!
Lime e-scooters have made the news recently after Christchurch schools banned them from school grounds. There have been instances where the scooters have been disrespected and dumped in the ocean, and have even had fireworks attached to them.
However some people are in support of the scooters, and have even found a way to make extra pocket money from them.
So what are your thoughts on the use of electric scooters in the Garden City? Are they a nuisance or a whole lot of fun? Share your thoughts with us in the replies below.
