Developers moving in next door

Sara from Mount Wellington

Does anyone have experience with developers putting in high density housing next door? I have just found out that there will be 5-6 new houses going in next door and this is going to severely impact me. We will be living I a fish bowl! Not to mention it will block out all the sun in the mornings and my view will be tricky tacky boxes instead of big sky! 😡😢
What can I do?? What are my rights or at least what are the rules around how high they are allowed to go? Here’s my view now from my lounge room. Soon it will be a wall of houses with people looking into my house!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
