Far North District Council is working with Te Hāpua community members to resolve concerns about new variable speed limit signs installed outside the local school.

The new dog registration year starts today (Wednesday 1 July), with Far North dog owners encouraged to register early to get the cheapest rates and go in the draw to win one of 10 prize packs.

Community members from across Hokianga, Whangapē, Herekino, Waimamaku and surrounding areas are being asked to join panels to plan for climate change.
