How do you want to see Hutt City develop?
Lower Hutt residents are to have a say on what the city will look like in the years ahead.
Hutt City is in the initial stage of reviewing it's District Plan – the rule book for managing land use and development in the city. The plan covers everything from the height of neighboring properties to how to minimise the impact of climate change.
The plan also sets the rules for developers looking to build infill housing and mutli-storey buildings.
Hutt City Council Chief Executive Jo Miller says the new District Plan will affect every person and every business in the city.
"Tell us how you would you like to see the city develop over the next 20 years."
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
