Dogs in Kitchener Park, Feilding
Today one of our Trustees found a professional dog walker allowing her 4 dogs off the lead to defecate in the Makino Stream in Awahuri Forest Kitchener Park. This was in spite of several notices advising that dogs must remain on a lead. One such notice was right in front of her car! She denied any knowledge of knowing this by--law. We hold education programmes for school children around the stream and there are also iwi eel traps in the vicinity. If any one knows who this lady is I would appreciate them advising me. There is a dog park at Manfeild for public use. Awahuri Forest Kitchener Park is a scenic reserve and no-one wants to see dog excrement especially not in the stream where it cannot easily be cleaned up. Thank you Jill Darragh (Chair, AFKP Trust)

Stolen Pot plants
Last week on my return from a few days away a green 33cm shrub tub of petunias was missing from the front of my garage,
Today a 39cm terracotta tub of orange pansies and a 33cm shrub of pansies was mmissing from alongise my driveway in Fairs Road.
I have reported these losses to the police.
Should anyone notice that neighbours suddenly have pots or tubs of flowers, either call the police or ask them to return them. They know where they got them.
