Chat with us about Hamilton’s District Plan
We're making some changes to our District Plan, the 'rule book' that guides development in our city.
These changes:
• Protect our city's historic heritage and natural environments through Plan Change 9
• Respond to Government direction to provide more housing, and higher density housing, in a way that also protects the health and wellbeing of the Waikato River.
This is called Plan Change 12.
Come along and find out what these mean for you.
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.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

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?
