Poll: Do you want community boards for Hamilton?

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

There's been a push to set up community boards in Hamilton and the Local Government Commission has heard submissions.

Some people say they'd stop council decisions feeling out of reach or be a great step forward, others see them as another layer of bureaucracy.

What do you think? Do you want community boards for Hamilton?

Have you tried this cafe?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Ethos Cafe isn’t just serving food - it’s rethinking the entire food system. From growing its own produce to composting kitchen waste back into the soil, this cafe is closing the loop, one plate at a time.

“We grow our own food, bring it into the kitchen, and whatever’s left goes back into our garden,” says head chef Chris McIntosh.

What do you think the speed limit should be around schools?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Switching to variable vehicle speed limits outside a dozen Hamilton schools is potentially “gambling with children’s lives”, says the city’s deputy mayor Angela O’Leary.

The schools currently have permanent 30kph limits but the Government has ordered a change as part of its push-back on speed limits lowered over the past few years.
