Police house to go
This is the Raetihi police house which the council, the business community and the residents and ratepayers of Raetihi tried to save ... but to no avail. It is soon to be uplifted and relocated in Ohakune to accommodate a police sergeant. It had been hoped that the logic of retaining a second police house in Raetihi to accommbdate a relieving or commuting constable from Ohakune ^^ien Raetihi's sole police-
man is away, would prevail. Garrick Workman, Raetihi's Mayor,said that he was not convinced by the decision-makers in Wellington and Wanganui of the need to move the house to Ohakune but he felt that the council and the community had done all that could have been done to retain the house in Raetihi. The cost of relocating the house in Ohakune is. estimated to be in the region of $18,000.
