I am supporting the need for more lighting in our community so that we can feel safe walking the streets. There have been too many incidents in our town because of the lack of streets without lightingCorey N Sheena Petera (Kaitaia, 2020-06-09)

I support this petition in hopes in gaining Far North District Council’s necessary consent and funding to install the critical need for appropriate lighting in streets that are at high risk. Adding adequate street lights to these high risk areas will enable people to safely and securely access their streets, properties and vehicles without fear of any further tragedies, therefore this will only enhance the general well-being and health of our entire community.Marina Yates (Kaitaia, 2020-06-10)

30 plus years I've lived in Kaitaia, that's how long our streets have been without adequate lighting. It's ridiculous. I know of 2 street lights that went up on Pukepoto Rd last year.However, the netball new carpark is lit up like a Xmas tree, that's funny!!

The street lights in our area are not adequate and makes it dangerous for those that want to stay active and walk the streets. There are many streets not only Allen Bell Puckey Ave Pukepoto Road routes all ages walk early morning and nights for exercise. It's dangerous and as a rate payer we should have there basic facilities for our community.Janita Brown (Kaitaia, 2020-06-11)

I’m signing because Kaitaia gets so dark and dangerous around 6pm when it gets dark, many people leave town because they feel unsafe because they can’t see, and also Bonnetts needs more lighting down their street, the whole town does.Nadia Cosner (Kaitaia, 2020-06-12)

I agree with Sharlene Subritzky about the lack of street lighting in Kaitaia, township and surrounding streets. Oxford Street is seriously lacking night lighting, not to mention our main street which looks like a derelict town at night. Please make our town and streets safer.Gayle Hill (Kaitaia, 2020-06-12)
#175
I have to walk down West lane to my car after work and its scary and dark. One light by Bank Street but not further down. Lights not working. We deserve better. If Kumi road that goes no where can get sealed surely the council can afford light bulbs.Pauline Oliver (Kaitaia, 2020-06-12)

I live in Kaitaia, this has always been an ongoing problem. Not only walking around town but sitting in parked cars at night has proven to be unsafe and scary aswellMaggie Allen (Kaitaia, 2020-06-12)

Completely agree that Kaitaia needs more Street lighting. This has been proven to help reduce crime in areas where lighting is implemented. It's a no brainers.Adele Krantz (Kaitaia, 2020-06-12)

Benefits of added street lighting would include: 1. walking in restricted areas 2. Identifying bridges a safety hazard for pedestrian and vehicles 3. Pedestrian density areas main streets leading to schools, centres, hospitals, walkways, rest homes, recreation centres etc 4. Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design [CPTED] principles 5. reduced risk of injuries 6. added security for homes and businesses 7. Adding value to areas 8.business for local electricity companies.As a rate payer I’d like to challenge the Far North District Council to walk our streets and ask if they feel safe?
