NEW SHELTER FOR BUGGY RIDERS —
Shuttle buggy riders can stay dry and seated while they wait for their ride thanks to a new shelter and call station in the public carpark opposite Franklyn Village. Members of the Waimea Menz Shed erected the shelter with support from various sponsors which supplied the steelwork (Fletcher Steel), cladding (Freeman Roofing) and concrete (Mitre 10).
NO GO ZONE FOR DRONES —
Emergency Response Manager Pete Kara would like you to let him know if you see any drones flying above our hospitals. This is because all drone activity within a four kilometre radius of Nelson and Wairau hospital helipads must be consented and drone pilots need to log their flight plan with Airshare. Pete says that drones can be a risk to helicopters. They are also used to gather photographs and video footage, so are considered a potential threat to the privacy of patients and staff. 11
