What do you think about Piha Volunteer Fire Brigade needing a new 4WD?
Hi neighbours. Piha Volunteer Fire Brigade needs a new 4WD to continue saving property and lives. A 4WD carries extra gear, more firefighters and can access beaches, farmland, steep driveways and unsealed roads - something the fire engines can't do. The firefighters are concerned they will struggle to reach and battle fires in hard to access areas. What do you think about the fact the brigade may not have a vehicle capable of reaching certain fires going into summer?
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
