Mowers complain about public, who complain about mowers
While the council discussed complaints about the mowing of the district' s cemeteries last Friday, the mowing contractors that the Council employs to mow the cemeteries have complained that the public are not taking care with the planting of flowers. They say containers holding flowers should be weighted and placed where they will not interfere with mowing operations. There are always containers and flowers spilling onto the mown areas and the contractors have to remove
them in order to keep the areas up to standard, complain the contractors. The co-operation of the public will enable them to be maintained more efficiently, the council asks. At last Thursday' s Waimarino Community
Board meeting members complained that a 74-year-old Returned Services Association member was left with the job of mowing the Ohakune RSA cemetery. Chairman Colin Webb said it was not good that the man was left to do the mowing.
