9 months agoKiwa pools is a flop Google says 42 million project and it's trash miss the old pools were it was full of life. Council should have built 80 new homes for families and kept Olympic pools as is. Grey street should have added some speed bumps and zebra crossing easy as .

8 months agoAll beaches closed due to emergency WASTE WATER valves dumping into the ocean, their supposed answer for this was that there was heavy rainfall over loading the WASTE WATER drainage. Does Gisborne just not have a storm water drainage system? Are all of their plumbers dodgey bastards that connect storm water services into waste water drains? Absolute melts.

a year agoI have just read thefollow up report ( 14/ 12/23)into the tragic death of ' sarge ' the dog. Still doesn't say much about Gisborne council, just a cop out! Any council that uses bolt guns on animals need to take a hard look at yourselves. ' time Poor' was a reason? . Really the good people of Gisborne deserve better than that, after all they pay your wages.

a year agoBolt gun for dogs, really? You lot are nuts. Not only that but how the hell do you even mistake one dog for another? A ridiculous attempt at an apology, robbing a member of someone's family of their life and a family of their family member. You lot deserve the heaviest penalties for what you've done. Can't help but feel it was deliberate what with the current bully types being put under fire. There is absolutely zero reason beyond sheer stupidity that this even happened.

a year agoThe use of a bolt gun for any dog is cause for concern, but doing that to a family dog is just a massive red flag. It has led us to reconsider this area as a potential destination for our family's future relocation. The incident in question is deeply troubling; mistaking one dog for another raises serious questions on the competency of the elected council and it's employees. The apology offered is grossly inadequate, as it entails the loss of a beloved family member and cause a significant emotional impact to the family. It's also concerning that the council is choosing to support the employee over the victims. I believe that the council as a whole should face significant and severe consequences for the actions they greenlit. Given the current focus on addressing issues related to aggressive breeds, it's difficult not to speculate about the intent behind this incident. It is clear that this situation should never have occurred, and it appears to be the result of a regrettable lapse in judgment or worse... would you trust this council to do right by you and your family? Don't risk it, stay away.
