Poll: What do you think should happen here?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Councillors have rejected a politically unpopular $400,000 raised pedestrian crossing between Claudelands Park and a busy Hamilton mosque.

However, they’ve asked staff to look into a more expensive light-controlled crossing slightly further up the road.

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.
