Rochdale St residents concerned with rat-running in the area called for the street to be made “residents only” from Straven Rd during an on-site meeting with the city council. But the city council said it would not be possible. Reporting back to the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board, city council staff said: “Making Rochdale St residents only at Straven Rd is not appropriate as it is a public road.” The meeting was attended by residents from Harakeke and Rochdale Sts, city council staff, and Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board deputy chairwoman Helen Broughton, said Aaron Haymes, city council manager operations transport. •Turn to page 12 Don’t compromise on looks.
