Napier houses threatened by risk of slip
Illegal earthwork has led to an “imminent risk” to six homes and properties on Napier Hill.
Stuart and Elizabeth McMillan have been given until February 2 to carry out remedial work on the hill surrounding a large commercial property they own on Northe Street, at the western foot of Napier Hill.
The Napier City Council was granted an application for the enforcement order late last month after experts became concerned about the imminent threat posed by the removal of hundreds of cubic metres of earth.

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.
