Waikato District Council is seeking feedback on the proposed Public Places Bylaw 2015.
The bylaw regulates a range of activities that happen in public places (roads, streets, parks).
Proposed changes to the Bylaw are:
• New rules banning the use of “legal highs” in public places.
• Restrictions around electoral advertising.
• Amendments to parking restrictions in Huntly, Ngaruawahia and Raglan.
• Removal of freedom camping rules from this bylaw (this will be included in a separate freedom camping bylaw).
• Combining the Franklin District and Waikato District Bylaws.
We want you to ask - are these rules right for me?
Visit www.waikatodistrict.govt.nz or any Council office or library to view the proposed bylaw, statement of proposal and submission from.
Have your say by 30 November 2015
