Taking a break...

FixMyStreet is going offline shortly, probably permanently. The software is old and needs a complete rewrite, the site is being bombarded by spammers, and it is debatable whether councils are receiving and/or acting on FixMyStreet reports.

As of now, it is not possible to post new issues, or updates to published issues.

If you have submitted on FixMyStreet, thank you for playing a part in one of Aotearoa/New Zealand's early civic tech projects.

Rubbish at Feilding lookout

Most mornings I (and other conscientious Feilding residents) take their morning walk that includes the Feilding lookout. Most mornings this area has rubbish (mostly takeaway packaging and unused food) left around on the ground. A lot of the mornings the rubbish bin is fill to overflowing as well, and on occasions the wind has blown excess rubbish around. I accept (but struggle to understand) that rubbish is left on the ground on a regular basis. I would ask that the council consider putting in a larger (vandal proof) rubbish receptacle, so that when we pick up the rubbish we have somewhere to put it. A similar situation occurred in New Plymouth recently, and I gather the Council there have sourced some very good larger, vandal proof rubbish receptacles. Thank you.
