Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The man behind a shipping container art ‘eyesore’ in Flagstaff vows that he hasn’t given up his battle to build there.

Owner David Yzendoorn says he’s been “put in a straitjacket” by council regulations, and he’s ready to go to the Supreme Court to be allowed to build a home.

Walking path & not one facility I could find to give a dog a drink of water.

Shezz from Ngaruawahia

Council. I would like to suggest that a dog drinking post or two be erected, with a metal bowl below and a self stopping tap to top it up, to give fresh water to thirsty dogs who accompany their owners on this pathway. Perhaps a water fountain at the top for the owner as well. Thank you.
