Tauranga CBD joke

Vicki from Papamoa Beach

After reading so many posts re our CBD and the botch up of our city made by our council commissioners, I had to share something I saw online. I was looking at an Urban Exploration site ( where members explore abandoned buildings, homes and towns) and what did I see?! Our own Tauranga CBD listed under NZ abandoned cities, with a suitably atmospheric picture of our empty main street! I am not sure if this was meant to be a joke, or if the Urban Explorers really thought our city was a ghost town! πŸšοΈπŸ‘»

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? πŸ’°πŸŒ²

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
