Poll: New ramp at council building to increase security
Mōrena kiritata,
Palmerston North City Council is turning its public entrance from The Square into a staff only and disabilities entrance to increase security after the Christchurch terror attacks last year.
The council forked out $64,000 on the changes following advice from an independent security review, even though there's been no incidents of people wandering into the building from the street causing problems.
Is this a good use of money?
-
12.7% Yes, preparations need to be in place.
-
69.5% No, it's excessive.
-
17.8% Maybe, if the review said it's a good idea there must be relevant concerns.
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?
-
82.4% Yes
-
14.8% No
-
2.8% Other - I'll share below
