Mowing Berms

Laurence from South New Brighton

I can arrange all the berms to be mowed for a gold coin. That is if there are complete streets and there are no obstacles like parked cars and bitsy gardens.
Cutting back overgrowth would be extra, trimming back pathways the same. Get onto your local councillor to free up the funds to do these jobs. Our Mayor graciously gave a contract to City Care to fund a couple of boys with whipper strippers to spend eternity to address a few bad paths.
We need to stop contracts that should be local being given to business who pay minimal wages.

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?
