Searching for the rightful owners of six unclaimed Otago properties
If you are a descendant of a John Logan, Basil Cotterill, Lillie Mills, or Frederick Wickens you could have your own slice of paradise.
An advertisement seeking potential owners of the six properties have been advertised in the Otago Daily Times this year. Public Trust head of marketing and partnerships Josh Byers said if no owner or descendant of the properties came forward within two weeks, the notice would then be added to gazette.govt.nz.
It is not too late for beneficiaries or descendants to make a claim once their property is sold. Find out more here.
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?
