Accordian theft from car on Dominion Road - 1st August
Our friends who organise a cultural group called Singing Nations have had their car broken into with the loss of an iconic accordion, bags of sheet music and audio equipment like microphones and speakers. This loss is significant as they volunteer their time and resources to run a group with approx 30 members. I am personally embarrassed and angry that this sort of thing happens in NZ more frequently nowadays. As a born Kiwi of 60 yrs I can attest this country has changed for the worst especially in terms of crime. Our friends are from Ukraine/Russia and came to this country for a better life. Except I hear they are now victims of 4 burglaries since being here. This last one involving the loss of equipment and folders of sheet music from their car parked on Dominion Road (near Balmoral Road intersection) whilst in a restaurant - was around 6pm on Sunday 1st August. Any information to aid recovery is most welcome. Thank you 027 2751195
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?
