    Local Government is grateful the latest funding boost has come in time for Summer


    Nine changes have been announced in the latest review of the Tourism Infrastructure Fund - to assist small communities struggling with growing tourist numbers.

    Rotorua Lakes District Mayor Steve Chadwick says it's going to make a big difference.

    She says small councils are very stretched especially with the influx of visitors during the tourism season which is now upon us.
