Poll: Do you think the bottle shop should have been allowed?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

An engineering contractor’s plans to set up a “bottle store with a difference” in Tokoroa have been labelled “insane” and “naive” by a South Waikato alcohol licensing committee.

Tokoroa locals worried about the effects the new store would have on their community have successfully blocked the setting up of a new off-licence in the town after a hearing late last year.

They have observed a growing number of incidents involving dirt bikes being ridden in an unsafe and dangerous manner around the city, said Senior Sergeant Scott McKenzie, Hamilton area manager for youth and community.

Poll: Will you attend your local Anzac parade?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Road cones have won the battle, but hopefully not the war, after forcing two small town Anzac parades to retreat from the main road and instead have veterans parading down the footpath.

The defeat has seen Transport Minister Chris Bishop also fire shots at what he described as “insane and absurd” rules, and prohibitive costs of temporary traffic management and vow to do something about it.
