Hinemoa Park: a sanctuary in our inner city. A historical element to our precious city
Are you aware that once again HCC is trying to take away a historical place in our City. The latest feature to take the eye of this council is Hinemoa Park. Which has a reserve status, but the council wants to do away with this status so that "Social Service buildings" can be built there! This, in a city where the South end of its inner city, is almost desolate, and full of buildings lying empty. The Central Library has forms for submission.....and may have them online.
Please tell our Council...….HANDS OFF!!!!

Poll: Do you think this was the right decision?
Hamilton City Council is defending a $60,000 spend on a flood of water management PR featuring a TV personality as residents face huge rates rises.
At a time of council cash constraints, Te Radar - real name Andrew Lumsden - catches the eye on the council’s Facebook page, where he currently features in three “explainer” video clips about Hamilton’s water services.

Have you come across many roadworks sites recently?
The frustration of seeing a detour sign partway through your journey on the main highways possibly the new way forward when it comes to roadworks.
One of the latest areas to have a section of the road blocked off is State Highway 1 between Putāruru to Tokoroa as part of a massive renewal project that extends down to Waiouru.
