Sunday Street Cleaning

Vina from Mount Roskill

Big thank you to four new kaitiakis at Earth Action street clean on 16 May 2021 at Wesley, Mt Roskill. Picked up 33 kgs of litter of which 60% should go to recyclable and compostable.

Two encouragements received which fattens the heart of kaitiakis: 1) Pacific boy about to go to church and said ‘thank you for looking after our environment’ and 2) an Indian fellow with litter in front of his property and said ‘don’t pick that up, we will sort it’

As they say ‘Every LITTER bit counts. Email vina.chen@earthactiontrust.org.nz your availability, if you are keen to join any our street cleaning on
-- 23 & 30 May, Sundays ( 8-11AM)
-- regular 2nd Thursday of the months (10Am-12nn)

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?
