Poll: Are you registered to vote in the local elections?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

A trusted deputy, a former councillor, a rescue chopper pilot, and a long-term incumbent should deliver one of the tightest mayoral races in the region when Taupō locals elect their new council.

Lining up for the mayoralty of the fast growing district is incumbent mayor David Trewavas, his deputy mayor and former police officer Kevin Taylor (who is also running for a seat on council), real estate agent, former councillor, and ACT party candidate Zane Cozens, and long-time Taupō resident and rescue helicopter pilot John Funnell.

Police apologise to rest home alleged theft victim after failing to act

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Police have apologised to a pensioner who caught a carer-turned-crook allegedly stealing cash, admitting there was more they could have done.

The about-face comes after the Waikato Times revealed the plight of rest home resident Lisa Allen, who set up a hidden-camera, capturing footage that appeared to show the caregiver opening her handbag and taking out a $50 note while the room was unattended.
