Bus Services for The Lakes
I see that the regional council has updated bus routes throughout Tauranga with more buses and connections which is great. However, it seems like The Lakes got left off any extensions to services. There is currently at least 3-4 bus stops around the lakes area that are not included on routes which could take another 50 to 100 more folks off the road communiting via bus if the routes extended.
I also see that the CBD to lakes return connection only stops at Tauranga Crossing still.
Come on Baybus, people would use the services more if they provided suitable connections in these emerging suburbs.
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.
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?
