Can you help? Survey respondents needed for tsunami evacuation response project
Residents living in coastal areas including Redcliffs and Sumner, who evacuated the night of the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake, are being called to take part in a major research project.
Canterbury University is aiming to survey as many residents as possible to collect data on the tsunami evacuation response which took place following the magnitude 7.8 earthquake.
It will focus on residents living in coastal areas such as New Brighton, Southshore and the bays of Banks Peninsula.
The survey will run over several months and a preliminary report will be completed at the end of the
year.

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?
