Helicopter

Karin from Upper Moutere

I was at Raeward Fresh on Friday when I saw a helicopter come down in the residential area at Templemore Drive / Heritage Cresent. It wasn't a rescue helicopter and I was puzzled why someone would land in among houses that are spaced quite closely. I learned that the said helicopter had it's own heli-pad there, because the owner lives in that area!??? Really? How can one get a heli-pad placed so close to other houses, let alone a old folks home? Or schools, for that matter? TDC certainly has funny rules...
