Dogs in Kitchener Park, Feilding
Today one of our Trustees found a professional dog walker allowing her 4 dogs off the lead to defecate in the Makino Stream in Awahuri Forest Kitchener Park. This was in spite of several notices advising that dogs must remain on a lead. One such notice was right in front of her car! She denied any knowledge of knowing this by--law. We hold education programmes for school children around the stream and there are also iwi eel traps in the vicinity. If any one knows who this lady is I would appreciate them advising me. There is a dog park at Manfeild for public use. Awahuri Forest Kitchener Park is a scenic reserve and no-one wants to see dog excrement especially not in the stream where it cannot easily be cleaned up. Thank you Jill Darragh (Chair, AFKP Trust)

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?
