Central Library closure

Matihiko/Tech Support Librarian from Hamilton Central Library Te Koopuu Maania o Kirikiriroa

Central Library will be closed for one week from this Saturday (5 March) due to staff shortages. We will review this after one week.
We’re as disappointed as you are, but isolation requirements mean we simply do not have enough people to keep all six libraries running safely.
On a happier note - Chartwell, St Andrews, Dinsdale, Hillcrest and Glenview Libraries will remain open. You’ll also still be able to return books to the Central Library while it’s closed through the return chute.

Thanks for bearing with us, we hope this won’t last long!

Hamilton City Council approved the supermarket with conditions including a controversial speed limit reduction to 60kph on Wairere Drive.

Poll: Would you ever buy a total doer upper?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Housing stock is starting to move on the Coromandel Peninsula, including a dilapidated place one block back from Whitianga's Buffalo Beach that sold to a Hamilton bargain hunter for $500,000.

Real estate companies are starting to see more deals go, however, prices have stabilised with high supply levels still outstripping demand.
