Have your say on pokies in South Waikato

The Team from PGF Services - Hamilton

The South Waikato District Council is currently reviewing its Class 4 gambling venues policy. You can you’re your say on its proposed policy until Friday 4 March.

What is the council proposing? The South Waikato District Council is proposing to retain its sinking lid policy. This means the Council will not grant consent for the establishment of any new class 4 venues, TAB venues, or gaming machines. Their relocation and clubs merger clauses remain unchanged in this policy review.

We are encouraging the Council to retain its sinking lid policy and prohibit relocations or club mergers. A sinking lid is the best policy to control the growth of gambling and minimise harm.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
