ANZAC Day services and some reminders for the day
ANZAC Day services take place on Thursday in Taupo, Turangi, Waihi Village and Mangakino with the main ceremony held at the cenotaph on Tongariro Domain in Taupo at dawn.
There will be some road closures around the Taupo CBD while the services are taking place.
There are no changes to kerbside refuse or recycling collections, which will take place as normal on ANZAC Day. Landfill and transfer stations around the district will open at the later time of 1pm.
All our offices and district libraries will be closed for the day.

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.

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.
