NPDC 10 Year Plan - Have your say!!!!
The Mayor has issued a challenge for people to submit on the Council's 10 year Plan. Apparently current submissions are no more than 20% of the last review submissions (i.e. 3 years ago). He has cheekily suggested that everybody must be happy while acknowledging this is probably not the case.
Come on then - have your say or are you happy to have the last 20 years of excessive rates increases repeated for the next 20 years. I also strongly suggest you air your major concerns or thoughts on Neighbourly for the greater good.
This can be done either on-line or there was a 2 page insert in the Daily News recently if you happened to retain.

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.
