The Dunedin City Council (DCC) is proposing a new landfill at Smooth Hill, 28 kilometres southwest of the city near Brighton, to replace the current dump at Green Island, which is nearing the end of its life.
The move has raised the ire of some Brighton residents, who fear it may have negative effects on the surrounding area, particularly waterways.
Those opposed now have another chance to have their say, with the Otago Regional Council confirming it has decided to publicly notify the city council's consent application for the new landfill.

My cat is still missing and I am not giving up, no matter how long it may take to find him. He has been missing since June.

He has been missing since June.
We suspect someone has assumed that he is a stray and is feeding him. Possibly, they may want to keep him as many people assume a cat is homeless if the owners are not within close proximity.
City cats can wander up to 5 km when they are lost, and Miles was sighted twice over three blocks away from our house. So please do not assume he is a stray since he has wandered quite far.
A reward is being offered for his SAFE return. No questions asked.
He comes from a loving family, and we are still very upset over his disappearance. I know some people can't relate to how much we love and miss him but he became such a huge part of our family and my life. After I had surgery, my partner got Miles for me when he was a kitten so I would have company while on bed rest. Looking after Miles made me feel better and motivated me to work on my recovery faster. Not having him here just feels like there is a massive part of my life missing.
If you know where he is, please call me: 02102529119.

“I was treated like a leper,” the Dunedin woman, who requested anonymity, said of the incident, which underscores the complexities customers and shop workers face when grappling with rules under different alert levels.
Each Thursday for the last two decades she has caught a bus to shop at Countdown in central Dunedin.
But that loyalty was tested after an incident which unfolded on the morning of August 26. Read the full story here.

To do our part, here's two phrases we believe everyone should know in Te Reo Māori.

OUSA made national headlines when it bought the bar, known to generations of former students as The Oriental, in December 2018.
That bar, which reopened in time for Orientation 2019, was designed to be “a safe entertainment option for students, particularly first-year students”, events manager Jason Schroeder said.
But the bar, which has been shut since the nationwide lockdown, will remain closed due to health and safety concerns about the building. OUSA is now looking for an alternative venue.
