  Intermittent operation. Switches on for a few minutes then off for a few minutes.
• Overhanging black berry bush

  Overhanging black berry bush needs to be poisoned or trimmed back
• New graffiti on water tower opposite 61 hinekura ave
• overhanging trees

  The roadside trees on most of Hauraki Terrace, Pukawa need trimming. I would be happy to meet someone up there and discuss the problem with him/her. Also the access track to the water tanks out there has not been mown since before Christmas and the long grass is very dry - probably a fire hazard in the current dry conditions.
• Mc Laren Park opp 4 Hinerangi Place

  There is a twisted willow on the corner of McLaren Park Reserve that has a dead/damaged large brench hung up in it that has broken hanging down with leaves dead. It is dangerous and needs removing to remove public hazard risk. [wonder why TDC staff haven't noticed and reported by now.]
• Plant obstructing footpath

  A rose bush has grown over the fence and is now completely obstructing the footpath. This has been happening for some time!
• Low branches obstructing traffic

  Several oak trees in Ward Place need the lower branches removed to allow tall vehicles past safely. The trees could also do with thinning. Please don't remove the entire trees as they are lovely.
• No street lighting on tonight (Sunday 3 Feb)

  Street lights in Chesham Ave and Arrowsmith Ave are not going tonight. I noticed on Saturday that they were on during the day instead.
• disgusting tagging

  please remove the tagging from several of your light posts in the wairakei village - particularly the ones outside my house at 5 maire street as im trying to sell it and the tagging is making the place look very unappealing. thanks alot. luke 0273010177
• Berm Mowing

  The berm on the Tautahanga Frontage of 4 Hinerangi Place has been unmown for months. It is Cuncil road berm and by the berm policy council will maintain it periodically if the property owner adjacent to it won't. It used to be done as a mower went past, not hard not costly, u , and it removed the eyesore. It has this been left to look such a disgrace through the summer.Others tell me that they have already reported this problem. PS Last time Council mowed it they left the clumped mown grass as a further eyesore
• Fire Risk

  The paddock on the southern side of Victory Drive has very tall dry grass right up to the house boundaries, it is a extreme fire hazard right now. Can you find the owners and have them cut it back ASAP at least 5 metres back from the boundary fence. Many thanks
• Give Way sign damaged

  The give way sign corner Lakewood Drive/Docherty Drive has been damaged. it has been turned the wrong way by vandals. Also,The Lakewood Road sign at same corner has been defaced.
• Stormwater Sumpm Mntc Tautahanga Rd and Turangi generally

  There are numerous street stormwater grates clogged with tree litter and have been that way for the whole of January. It rained this week and the stormwater was blocked at many of these. Periodic maintenance would have averted this isuue had it been attended to in a timely manner or a TDC worker taken 2 secs to clear when observed. Can Turangi street maintenance be attended to so we don't have to complain.
• Graffiti on black table by the white pontoons on the water. Riverside park
• Graffiti om footpath along kiddle dive, 200m south of college turnoff
• Leaking water toby

• Street sign out of ground
• Centre garden on southern part of Victory drive

  Although it was reported that this problem had been fixed, it would appear to have been overlooked. The weed growth in the centre garden on the roadway has got even worse. Further down Victory drive it appears to be very tidy and maintained.
• Kerbing

  Concrete kerb broken due to vehicle running over it. 2 Large pieces of concrete have broken away.
• Blackberry and fern overgrowth

  A nice seat on the walkway North of Three Mile Bay is sited n icely for a view down the lake. The itty is all that can be seen is two metre high blackberry and ferns. Could it be cleaned up for holiday makers etc prior to Christmas ?
• Fire hazrad.

  The long grass on this property hasn't been mown all year and when it dries out all neighbouring properties will be at risk. There are too many cars and motorbikes driving through and a spark or hot exhaust will create an inferno. The property needs to be made so vehicles cannot use it as a short cut.
• Marshall and Ferney Place

  Please remove tagging on brown concrete wall corner of Marshall Ave and Ferney Place. Thank you.
• Storm water drain blocked

  At the Wharewaka Point lookout - adjacent to Roundabout by Airport - the most southern storm water outlet is blocked, lts of water is pooling for days after rain.
• Missing Storm water drain cover

  I have noticed that the cover for the stormwater Culvert access is missing and requires replacement. It is about 30 meters before the single lane bridge on the left hand side driving SE. This needs to be replaced before someone falls in. Regards Josh

• Hole left in service alley roadway by power company works

  There has been a big hole left in the roadway of the service alley between Horomatangi St and Heuheu St behind Whitcoulls, by Unison Power, since they fixed a power fault nearly 5 months ago. We have requested that this be filled in but we are still waiting. The hole (and cones and fencing around it)majorly affects the ability for trucks to be able to access my store to deliver as well as the flow of traffic and our ability to access our staff carparks. With Christmas approaching it will only get worse with increased traffic using the alley way. Leaving the hole this long is unbelievable and we would appreciate some assistance to get it filled in.
• Pothole

  Pothole on highway immediately outside Debretts/Hilton driveway. Was created by council contractor laying cable and using heavy digging machinery. Has been partly filled however remains unlevel and a possible hazard.
• footpath joint needs grinding

  SH 41 from Puataata Rd intersection to Hirangi Rd, the area was being mown by TDC with a mulcher mown twice a year to make an easier to walk pedestrian track on the north side of the SH 41 road berm area - additional to what LTSA road contractors did. – This also helps keep boom, luppin, willows and gorse growing over the TDC Turangi to Tokaanu trunk water main. Can this mowing be reintroduced into the operational activities again? It was introduced as a response by TDC and TTCB to Annual Plan public submissions in 2010.
• Pot holes

  This is dangerous as you come over the rise of the hill there is a very wet spot that is getting bigger.making it dangerous to drive over.There are also no marker pegs on this road and in the fog it is very hard to see where you are going
• Verge has a tree stump remianing

  A few weeks ago a tree was seriously damaged and knocked over, someone came and cut it down but they have left the stump sticking out the ground. Can someone come and remove the stump and either replace the tree or regrass. The stump is on the right hand verge between Shepherd Road & Chesham Avenue when coming from Kiddle Drive

  Foot path dug up by contractors to lay cable. They have repaired the footpath around this area, however have not filled this (on the corner) which is a trip hazard for pedestrians.

• Cherry trees all need growths trimming from trunks

  Cherry trees on Road front verges are generally overwhelmed by trunk growth which should be trimmed to allow growth to the upper part to flourish. They are throughout the Wharewaka Point subdivision. The central gardens on Victory Drive ( southern side) also need maintenance.
• Turangi Information Centre Banners Signs

  One has one of the flag support bars boken off - welds must have failed and the bar is in the end of the flag and flapping in the breeze - dangerous. There is one other flag in tatters.
• Over load of STRAY CATS

  Through out Wairakei Village there is a HUGE OVERLOAD OF STRAY UNWANTED CATS!!! Not only are there more cats than residents in Wairakei Village they are breeding daily, loud and horrible screams and noises, also they hang around the RUBBISH bags that most of us like to put out the night before, for collection!! Unfortunately these infested unhealthy cats are really yuck and carry nasty's with them!!!Would council do anything to defuse this situation at Wairakei Village??

• Tree stumps on council verge Waihora Street

  Hi there - about 2 months ago some trees on the councils roadside verge were removed - we assume by council? We are the property owner who maintains the verge lawns due to our property being on the corner. The issue is that the stumps have been left which are untidy. We would appreciate these being removed (in-line with other trees that I have seen removed on council property around the town) with a stump grider so that we can maintain a proper lawn. Many thanks for your co-operation Duncan

• Graffiti and Tagging

  There are many fences,letterboxes and driveway fences in Marshall avenue that have been tagged. Would be nice if the council could remove this unwanted eye sore. Thank You
• Abandoned building and trees/garden in reserve.

  There is an abandonded building in the reserve. Over the last 5 years it has been more and more vandalised. Windows are broken, graffiti inside, building rotting out and smashed walls. It attracts a criminal element. The trees and what was a garden around it have grown out of control and are full of blackberry. I beleive the building was once a womens tennis club. It would make the park safer and more usable if this whole area was returned to a mowable grassed area.
• Some of Noble Street lights not operating
• lights not working

  For approx one week street lights on both sides of Ngamotu Rd are not working from Awanui St up to top of cul-de-sac at Hilltop School

Thank you.

• Reserve Barrier broken

  reserve barrier broken on reserve between Tautahanga to Takinga
• Water flowing in abandoned house

  The house at 11 Tanekaha Tce (white house next to alleyway) has water constantly running. It's possible vandals have been in and stolen the hot water cylinder and just cut the pipes. Seems a waste to let that water just run away.
• Street light not going

  This light has been out for sometime outside 18 Hawai Street Taupo
• Logs blocking boat ramp
• Pavement collapsed due to tomo

• Dangerous Trees

  I reported this problem over a month ago. Nothing has happened. The unsightly stump is still there, and with the beginning of winter and storms it is urgent that the gum trees are removed.
• Leaves from Oak trees in Ward place

  Could someone please come and remove the fallen leaves from the (unwanted by all up this street)Oak trees. They are blocking the storm drains. I also object to having to clean up these leaves every couple of days and then have to PAY to take them to the dump. I have heard the Turangi residents don't pay to get theirs removed. We have repeatedly asked the council to remove these trees... not only are we paying to remove the leaves, the roots are lifting the footpaths up in many places, which is very dangerous.
• Street lighting and shoes hanging from phone wire.

  There are a number of street lights not working on Noble Street and a pair of trainers hanging from a phone wire at risk from getting caught by one of the many large boats that get trailered down to the harbour.

• Street Light not Working

  The Street Light outside number 12 Green Place has not been working for over a week
• Grace Road to Tongariro River Bridge

  This must be the untidiest entrance way into any town on State Hwy One. The verges are covered in scrub and blackberry and are an eyesore. Not a great image for Turangi.
• Tagging on concrete wall

  There has been a picture of tamaiti painted on the concrete wall that lines the alley way heading towards the industial area, this is so intimidating and scary!!

  The underpass had no day time lighting - so it was dark and difficult to see the smashed glass. There used to always be some lights on through daytime to provide lighting.
• Ohuang Rd - south side mall entrance Carpark tree

  Town Centre near Soyutj entrace a tree needs trimming lifting to provide better visibility of pedetrians by cars. Today I saw someome obscured by the tree and the car could not see them nor could they see the car because the branches are leafey and hangingmlow - a trim up of them to lift them would solve the issue.
• Foot paths after cable ducts have been installed

  WHen can we expect the topsoiling and back filling of replacement footpaths on Tamamutu st? Sprained ankles are occurring.
• Ohuanga Rd Town Centre Carpark Garden plot #2

  Same as previous complaint - unplanted eyesore for over one year now
• Damaged street sign

  The Chelsea Rise street sign has partially detached from pole bracket. This occurred during recent high winds. Given that repairs are needed, if there is any possibility that this sign could be placed elsewhere when attended to I would appreciate a discussion on my reason for this request and what options may be available.
• Street light not working near 207 Tamamutu Street

  Street light between 205 and 207 Tamamutu Street failed about 10:30pm tonight. Can you fix please.
• Town Centre Garden Plot Ohuanga Rd

  The corner of one of the entrance garden plots is damaged. What is most disspointing is the lack of proactivity and inaiative by TDC staff to make this safe through the day - ie. by removing damaged blocks, or screening off. Not good enogh and safety of public as well as general appearance to town cetnre left like this all day. The Town Centre cleaner should have seen it early in the day and if he was in the area, and he was nearby at 3:30pm when I saw it but no one did a thing!

• Maintenance

  The wire netting sign advertising upcoming events is well past it's useby date and has been in a bad state of repair for some time. Surely Taupo can do much better than this.
• Ohuanga Rd Town Centre Carpark Gardens

  There are two garden plots unplanted and weed infested for a year now. I see complaints in the Turangi Chronicle - of falling standards and with this lack of performance they are jutified. Gareth Green's answer was unbelievable, staff have been on and you have had time. TDC now have no qualified horticulture staff based in the Turangi staff where they can observe and remedy garden issues and current staff are sicere but untrained eg. can't recognise plant health problems and but that was the current managements choice with the most qualified staff member now driving mower tractors. It's sad to see the 25 years begun by Graham Pilet's forsight to employ qualified gardeners and to have made significant progress over the years in the town amenity horticulture and landscapes and now to see it slowly but surely regressing.
• Rubbish dumped in reserve

  Not for the first time, a pile of junk rubbish has been dumped on the reserve area at the parking and turn around at the Southern end of Wharewaka road. The Council have always been very good at cleaning it up on previous occasions. It appears as though this is a repeat offender !
• Tree need lifting

  Tree needs lifting - in wet weather it droops down and obscures pedestrains crossing toward Town Centre - I have already reported this once after seeing a near miss - a trim of lower branches is all that is required.
• Trees

  Hi, These trees have been an ongoing issue for many years. There are a row of trees beside paerata road from the intersection of Tirohanga road up paerata road for about two km. Every time there is a storm many branches fall onto the road and somtimes the top of a tree would blow out across the road and has to be removed by a tractor. Last year one completly blocked the road and landed across the oppsite fence. I have rang Council three times regarding this issue over the last few months and been assured I will be contacted by the relevent person but still waiting. Please give this your attention as these trees are over 50 years old and are becomming dangrous. Kind regarde David Treloar

• Dumped on Reserve

  At the Waipapa Reserve northern most Eucalypt tree an old bed carcass has been dumped under the tree.
• Bad road

  Can we please have this road fixed! There aren't pot holes as such but the road is very badly uneven and dangerous. It collects a lot of water even after just a shower. The worst part is from the Poihipi Rd end and continues for about 2km. Is it possible to have a bridal path along it also as there are a lot of horses riding on the road and it is a very narrow road and it's only a matter of time before a stock truck has a head on with a child on their pony. We have a number of stock trucks on the road weekly.

  I was appraoched re the ex-Turangi Primary School site that has now got long dry grass on it.

• Footpath Encroachment

  The vegetation from 202 Tautahanga Rd, Turangi has overgrown the footpath to the point where pedestrians are now wearing a track on the grasss berm to get past it. 202 Tautahanga Rd, I have reported this once and not attended to yet. I'm dispointed at level of service.
• Stones from burst water pipe

  Hi just wondering how long it will be before all the stones that were washed down from the burst water pipe on Cumberland Street on Tuesday will be removed.

However the job was not completed and the stump was never cleared up properly and still remains sticking up as a hazard right beside the footpath.

• Ohuanga Rd - sth side Carpark berms

  February 2011 two berm areas had plants removed but have never been reinstated with grass or plantings and remain a weed infested eyesore on one of the most public areas. Other side gardens need a good weed, and the fences with 15minmaintnace with a hammer and nails to reinstate the knocked off pailings would held the area at least look as though someomne cared.
• Business car parking

  Tuwharetoa Street between Kaimanawa Streets and Titraupenga Streets is getting dangerous for traffic passing through. Several accidents/near misses due to cars parking both sides of road narrowing road for passing vehicles. Is hard to see oncoming traffic when pulling out of driveways. Staff and customers of accounting business at #109 Tuwharetoa St etc appear to be the main culprits (insufficent parking for their clients and staff as the same vehicles are often parked there all day during weekdays). Delivery vehicles/buses/trucks struggle to pass also.
• Berm/blackberry

  There does not seem to have been any action on this issue - fallen and dead trees could be dangerous and blackberry is overtaking the whole berm.
• Broken Sign
• Barrier broken

  Barrier is boken with opne board removed - been like this for over a week now
• weeds in center swales

  weeds need removing in all the center swales in the Wharewaka sub-division.
• Bank eroded
• Safety issue - on cnr of Te Urunga Pl and Acacia Bay Road

  The trees on the corner of the above streets, prevent driver from clearly seeing cars coming from the right hand side without pulling out into the road.
• Stornwater Cess Pit Lid

  Waipapa Reserve - Millennium Walkway area just east of the Kaheke Place Baden Powell Hall- there is a stormwater cess pit grate that is being removed and dropped into the cess pit. Twice now in the last month and a half I have found the CI grate dropped into the cess pit and pulled it out and replaced it on the frames so the cess pit is safe. Left off someone could trip/fall into it. It may be that the lid needs securing on - it seems someone is periodically lifting it off and dropping it in.
• Broken street sign
• Berm - blackberry and dead trees

  Along the berm from the corner of Kaahu Road to the first of the private sections, there is a lot of overgrown blackberry (dead) and there are dead trees - some of which have already fallen - others that are in danger of falling onto the road also.
• Dangerous/Agressive Dogs

  2 x dogs at 146 Rangatira repeatedly jump the fence (between 146 and 144) and threaten other dogs and people passing by.
• Inappropriate tree on berm

  The current tree (or shrub) is unattractive and also a hazard for any driver pulling onto Tautahanga Road from 190. I would like permission to remove it and dump it free of charge and replace with another specimen. Thinking more of a tree rather than shrub.
• Almost dead flowering cherry

  The flowering cherry tree outside the section at 188 Tautahanga Road is mostly dead and could be a hazard as this is the second summer that it has been like it
• Graffiti on the side of first national building
• Farmers service lane at back of house of Steak and Ale

  large potholes
• Diseased Kowhai
• Sewer Manhole

  On the opposite side of Tautahanga Rd from 180 & 182 Tautahanga Rd is a sewer manhole that is progressively being buried under vegetation waste being dumped on top of it. The MH is on the main trunk sewer main and would be prudent and part of preventitive maintenance to keep it cleared. I belive the vegetation os probably being dumped from properies on the oppoite side of the road as the are where the MH is located is fenced but in an undeveloped state with blackeberry etc.
• Idiot doing burnouts on Hinekura Ave

  Some muppet in a green ute with dark/black decal on the side of the ute, with mags, from around the indicated area was doing burnouts on Sunday 11 December up and down the road. Who do we report this guy to?

• Rubbish Bins

  The Bins are old and need replacing, and should be located closer to the picnic tables. And they are to small to need to be larger like the ones in Taupo and Turangi town Centres. And is it possible to install Recycle bins as well.
• re staking and tying

  tree at end of culdesac which needs to be looked at outside number 9 many thanks
• Slippery chamber cover

  On the evening of saturday 18/06/11, I, along with friends, were walking south along Tongariro St, just before the traffic lights, when one of the females in our group slipped backwood on one of the two chamber covers due to the cover being so very slippery. I too nearly toppled when I slipped on the lid as a tried to save her fall. She is ok but has a bruised back today,19/06/11. I scuffed my foot over the other chamber lid to see if that too was as slippery to find it was as bad. Although our woman friend is ok, the result of the fall could have been worse for her, and worries me to think if an elderly person was to slip on one of these covers.

• Grass verge

  The grass verge outside 130-136 Roberts st needs digging out and re-sowing, this is only 150m from the council offices,,, i wonder how many council staff drive by this mess everyday and do nothing about it ?
• Lake Foreshore Erosion/Protection

  The protection "mattress" has rotted and disintegrated, and the erosion cavities are almost undermining the walkway. It's a diabolical disgrace and it's been like it for many weeks, if not months. It's not a good look for Taupo for both residents and visitors. So it needs some FIXIT attention URGENTLY and it needs to be done PROPERLY. In fact this, and a few other similar deficiencies, would be a far more appropriate use for the extra $100,000 which the council proposes to give to DGLT.
• Hedge overgrowing public walkway

  In the public walkway between Hinekura Ave (by #70) and Hinemoa - at the Hinemoa end the hedge is overgrowing the public walkway. It is down to a single file to get past the hedge

• Barrier Damaged

  Barrier at the cuol-de-sac on Waipapa Rd has been smashed over the weekend.
• Curb Crossings

  The curb crossings at the intersection of Tamamutu Street and Tiriraupenga Street are dangerous to use in a wheelchair or mobility scooter. Considering this is the route into town from one of Taupo's main rest homes (St John's Wood in Tamamutu Street)I feel new curb letdowns that meet NZ Standard Access Code regulations should be a priority in this area.
• Street Light Not Working

  at 166 Tautahanga Road
• bulb out

  light not going outside 39/41 Wakeman Rd
• street light not working properly

  Corner street light flicks on and off outside 25 Olive Avenue. It is off for up to a minute and could be dangerous for traffic turning into Olive Ave.also annoying for bedroom opposite.
• Graffiti removal on fence

  Red and green spray paint on the right of way wooden fence 28-30 Tawa Street, also on the street front to the right of driveway. It would be lovely if this could be taken care of. :-)
• stones on road

  The corner of King and Mapara Rd (and the corner of King and Ross Rise) has no 'barriers' of any sort to stop vehicles cutting over the edge of the road, causing stones to be spread over the intersection. This is an on-going problem, and is a danger to traffic (and windscreens), particularly motorbikes. My suggestion is to run a section of kerbing along the road side to stop vehicles going over the edge of the road and ripping up the asphalt. Regards.
• Footpath Trip Hazard - 4 Hinerangi Place, Turangi

  4 Hinerangi St - beside Angus McCreadie's south side fence a footpath trip hazard has increasingly developed- lifting of footpath by tree roots. Good one to put on the doo list before someone falls over it. Thanks

  Hirangi Rd - entrance to Tongariro Sports Rugby Club - just by the Turangi Park boundary - the entance drive way metal has come on to the edge of seal and formes a mound on the seal and if cycling along presents a hazard that has to be swerved around and puts the cyclist out into the paths of following carss.

  The Great Lake Walkway in front of Clearwater Motels has not yet been repaired after several months and requests to Council. Council put Hirepool barriers accross the area several months ago after a request but still no fix so area still remains a safety hazard.

  The walkway under Docherty Drive has been fouled by excretement and toilet paper for several months. Can we please have general mainteneance of this whole area on a regular basis.
• dip in road

  There is a significant dip / depression in the road at the point marked (possibly due to subsidence?). At 100 kph there is a noticeable thump as a vehicle passes over the dip - the edge of the road is becoming damaged as drivers veer left to avoid the worst of the problem. Regards.

  After Unison repaired the powercut in Oct 2010 this tomo appeared on the berm on the corner of Hyde Ave and Avon Close. It is a hazzard to walkers and runners.
• Broken street light

  The street light at this location has had a faulty ballast for at least the last 4 month causing it to turn on and off consistantly. It has now copmpletely shut down and is not operational.I suggest you review the contract of the company that is responsible for maintaining street lights and get them, or a new contractor to fix the problem.
• Faulty Lighting

  The street lights in Ngaio Place, Nukuhau and the surrounding area are off at night and sometimes on during daylight hours
• "Rest" Areas needs attention

  Is this NZTA, DOC or TDC but in any case, the lookout/rest area that many visitors flock to is in disgusting condition, grafitti all over the pavement, rubbish, fouling, etc etc. Same for the one half way up the Waihi Hill. With a month before we see an influx of RWC visitors with a few wanting to view our pristine lake, they will be in for a rude shock. If this is not TDC, could you please pass it along to who's responsible to get the best two spots to view the lake from the southern end cleaned up. Thanks.
• Graffiti on reserve fence

  Several street lights are missing along SH30 near and on the Whakamaru Dam, and along Pokuru Road North towards Whakamaru School. There are several older lamp posts along the private property along Pokuru Road North that need to be fixed for our safety.
• No Curb letdowns for prams and wheelchairs.

  Wheelchair, pram and moblity scooter access via the footpath network to the Taupo boat harbour area, the hidden jewel in Taupo's Tourist Crown, is almost non existant. There are no pedestrian let downs in the curbs on the northern side of Ferry road at all. The cub letdown from the Story Place walkway onto the South end of Redoubt Street by the Boat Harbour Public Toilets is dangerously steep and virtualy unusable for the faint hearted. It can also be blocked by parked cars. Once in the Boat Harbour area there is no wheelchair, mobility scooter, pram access onto the 'Coffee Cart' Island to buy and enjoy a coffee. There is also no way anyone who is wheelchair bound can safely get onto any of the commercial launches for hire. People with physical disabilties do tour and spend money just like any other tourist in our town.

• Large planter boxes and seating

  This may or maynot be the correct place to air this issue, but here goes. The rusty tree planters and temperary decking on corner on Heu Heu and Ruapehu street is an obstruction to free movement and parking of residents attempting to access shops. Can these please be removed from the car parking spaces, and if absolutely necessary to have, then placed onto park or reserve land near the chosen cafe's. They are simply an eye sore in our town.

  The storm water drain that takes water from Mahuta Rd into the lake is blocked and broken at the lake outlet and it is blocked at the Mahuta Rd end. The entrance to the drain is close to our drive way at 118 Mahuta Rd and every time there is more than 10mm of rain, our section floods. I have noticed the drain further up Mahuta Rd has been fixed, and we would really appreciate it if you could fix this one as well. Thank you.

• Street light repair - not urgent - next time in the area please

  Hi, We own the section at 868 Acacia Bay Road and are in the process of planning to build a house. The street light immediately outside the property is leaning and it would be good if it could be straigtened up (it is not about to fall over, hence not urgent - only a slight lean). Is it also possible to use some form of reflector to focus the light itself on the road as it also shines very brightly on what will be our front deck / lounge area (is there something that can block the back of the bulb?) Also, noticed there is not much lighting on Acacia Bay road where it runs in front of Wily terrace - are there any plans for this so people do not have to use high beams (and perhaps as they are starting to redo the retaining on Wily Tce). Thanks very much.

• blackberry overgrowth

  some empty sections on the right hand side of Peehi Manini rd have overgrown blackberry, they are encroching onto the road now and we are down to one lane only at that point, its bad enough that we the locals have to negotiate all the potholes and do any fixing of the road ourselves while these same land owners do nothing in the upkeep. I dont know who owns these sections but you must have a record.Can you please get them to cut back the bush on the road, or clean up the road for us then bill them. Please.
