HCC want to remove trees in Howell Ave that were agreed to be retained!

Alison from Riverlea

Roadworks are underway for the Te Awa cycleway down the North end of Howell Ave right now. The HCC, Te Awa cycle Trust and residents directly affected all agreed that the 4 trees along the section between 97 Howell and down are to be retained.
( Please see the attached HCC plan given to the residents dated 2 September 2021 saying the trees are being retained.)
Why have the HCC reverted back to their original plan to remove the trees now that construction is happening and not honouring the agreed upon plan.
Please HCC honour your published plan!!

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.

Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
