Experienced tree felling
We are looking for trees to fell in the Nelson Tasman Bay area. The purpose is to complete a task and also be assessed by an accredited forestry instructor. Preferably rural with limited nearby hazards, forestry blocks are ok. A minimum of 10 - 20 trees and over 200mm in diameter. To be completed by the 20th of February. Trees on slopes and awkward shapes are ok. Safety and liabilities will be part of the process. Costs would be very reasonable and negotiable. Any processing or transporting of logs can be arranged. If you know of any contacts, offers within the next week or two would be great to allow time for viewing and preparation. Contact Martin 027 371 4816
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.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
