Poll: Are you a fan of the pontoon?

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

Wellington Street beachgoers won’t have their revamped beach space finished before this summer, but their new favourite “temporary” pontoon is there to stay.

In January last year visitors to the river-side beach told the Waikato Times they were loving the new pontoon installed as a temporary replacement for the tired old jetty.

The city's new mayor is setting out his plan

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton City Council is pledging to cut costs and avoid “gold plating” infrastructure as part of a new strategy to limit rates increases, but Mayor Tim Macindoe says central government support may be needed to meet a new national rates cap.

Macindoe said Wellington needed to be “a little more nuanced” and take population growth into account.
