Glenfield is more than a shopping mall and an arterial road

Danielle Grant from Danielle Grant - Kaipatiki Local Board Deputy Chair

Glenfield is more than a shopping mall and an arterial road. Today, on behalf of the Kaipatiki Local Board, I presented to the Planning Committee of Auckland Council, in support of the placed-based spatial planning work programme. For over a decade the Glenfield Community Board and then the Kaipatiki Local Board have been advocating for Glenfield. Today's decision was an important milestone on this journey. Glenfield has a significant number of Council owned assets, including housing for our older people, library, pool, leisure centre, service centre and parks. We want to support retail, entertainment and recreation while encouraging more local employment, community development and transport links. Today was a win for advocacy and a win for Glenfield.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
