Outrageous concrete blocks dumping in Sispara Reserve
Shocked Pest Free Kaipātiki volunteers, recently discovered the dumping of a large amount of concrete blocks, into Sispara Reserve, check the first link to watch the video on our Facebook page, we couldn't share a video and still images wouldn't do the trick. This blatant disregard for the sanctity of reserve land is morally reprehensible.
Auckland Council have been informed and are taking this illegal act seriously and investigations are underway.
Our reserves need our protection. They are vital not only from an ecological standpoint but also our community's physical and mental health, particularly during these uncertain times. If you ever see illegal dumping, please immediately report it by calling 0800 NO DUMP (0800 663 867), available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Please share this video with your networks, to make people aware our reserves need protecting.
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.
