The cameras in "private places" can be switched off, and only a few select people have access.
Do you think this security is necessary, or is it a breach of privacy?

Owner, Luke Mullinger, says the trading hours of Streetwise Coffee will be its main point of difference in town. He's noticed the few cafe options on a weekend, saying he can't believe how hard it is to get coffee.
Have you noticed it's hard to get coffee on the weekends? Do you think this coffee cart will liven things up a bit?

Clearwater Mussels has already been refused two renewed consents after concerns the farm would affect King Shags, and the farms were closed. Despite this, the company's application to operate a reconfigured, existing three-hectare mussel farm was granted earlier this month.
What are your thoughts about this? Do you think more importance should be put on protecting the King Shags?
Looking forward to celebrating our wonderful communities across the country with all of you from 27 March to 5 of April.
