More than $100,000 has been granted over the past 25 years,
by the Waianakarua Lions Moeraki fishing competition, mostly
to East Otago and North Otago organisations.
Road closures are operating at the 25 Mile Bridge on the
Queenstown-Glenorchy Rd this week, and at Precipice Creek
Bridge on the Glenorchy-Paradise Rd during the next
fortnight, for bridge repairs and upgrades.
An online petition started by a Glenorchy woman opposed to
the Department of Conservation granting a concession to
Milford Dart Ltd for its $150 million, 11.3km tunnel, has
more than 1000 signatures - just two days after it was
started.
