  1. I reckon you folk should send someone out to sit here (Armstrong & Pound) and see what i see everyday. Its nearly the end of school term, but probably the best time… everyone is hot and in a hurry. I don’t think its the fault of the schools, just the general public being fools.

  2. Its always been a bad area for hoons along there, but nothing ever seems to get done.
    Another bad spot is Armstrong st from Murray st heading south. You should see it in school times… Ive see buses and parents speeding to get their kids from school and also not stopping at the STOP sign in Pound rd.
    I sit down there most days to pick my girls up from school and am disgusted by it, especially when some of the parents are well known business folk around town.
