Council board members paid $120 an hour
Hi neighbours,
My name is Christina Persico and I am the New Plymouth District Council reporter for the Taranaki Daily News. I was at a meeting yesterday and the councillors were discussing how much they should pay the people who sit on the boards for council-owned companies. It comes to the equivalent of about $120 an hour for the airport board.
What do you think about this? Have a read of the story (read more link below) and send us a letter to the editor: email editor@dailynews.co.nz.
And let me know your council concerns: christina.persico@stuff.co.nz.
Have a good one :)
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?

Recommendations please - Heatpump Repair
Hi,
Looking for someone reasonable to provide a quote to fix a Panasonic heat pump that a) leaks a little when on cool mode and b) doesn’t heat.
Appreciate all your recommendations
Thanks.
