Help us save water this summer

The Team from Christchurch City Council

We’re asking all Christchurch residents to save water so we can end temporary chlorination sooner.

The less water we use, the faster we can upgrade our wells. It all adds up, and we really appreciate people’s efforts.

The biggest demand for household water comes from garden sprinklers and irrigators. A better option is to use a hose with a spray gun, or a watering can. Better still, water only on alternate days between 9pm and 7am, when it's cooler.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
