Westports 7 Day Makeover
What an outstanding achievement. Folk of Westport can be right proud of themselves and their community for creating and working tirelessly all week. Buller District Councils webcam is a great way to see what has been completed in from of the NBS centre with red carpet laid and bean bags a plenty on the lawn. More has been completed outside New World with the Town Cloak getting some railway sleeper seating and plantings.
This is one project that Council did well in instigating albeit off to a rocky start at concept. Westport, not only do you SHINE, your a STAR.
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.
