Concert cap, 11pm curfew mooted as noise control for new Christchurch stadium
The $473 million, 25,000 seat covered arena, which will be able to hold up to 36,000 people for concerts, is to be built by the end of 2024 on a central city site, bordered by Cashel, Tuam, Madras and Barbadoes streets.
Proposed changes would introduce a limit of 15 concerts per year, and require those concerts to ending by 11pm, except on New Year's Eve, when they could end at 12.30am on New Year's Day.

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.

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?
