Poll: Do you want e-scooters in Wellington?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Wellington City Council has decided to proceed with a trial of the city’s first electric scooter share scheme. Councillors on the City Strategy Committee today voted 8 – 5 in favour of the trial which will initially last six months, but can be extended by 12 months. The extension will allow time for consultation and policy engagement.

Councillors voted that e-scooters should not be allowed on footpaths in the CBD or suburban shopping centres.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
