Donations by locals to their towns - what are the Waikato's top examples?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

It's being sold to a local philanthropist, who will gift the 9.3 hectares to the local council.
Ideas including a BMX track and arboretum have been floated too.

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

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
