theft of parcels
If you have a parcel stolen do not assume it was taken by a random doorstep thief. it may have been taken by the courier. I was expecting a small parcel. I checked the tracking to find it had been delivered AND signed for by me. First i had NOT signed for it. I checked the property and no sign of it. Considering the claimed delivery time was 7:20am i do not think it was stolen on a quiet street at that hour by a random person passing. More likely taken by the deceitful driver that signed for it. Thank you Post Haste (delivering on behalf of NZ Couriers) for all the hassle and trying to blame it on me when if they did knock and i did not answer the door the could have left a card to call. they even sent the driver back to threaten me not to complain within minutes of calling them about it.

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?

Poll: Do you think the inclusion of affordable homes will have an impact?
Off-the-plan sales at the long-awaited $3 billion Te Awa Lakes housing development in Horotiu will start in early 2025, some seven years after Perry Group originally announced the project.
Once finished about 2500 homes are due to be built on the 90ha site, with a target of 10% “affordable” homes being maintained. More than 5000 people are expected to live at the development once finished.
Do you think the inclusion of affordable homes will have an impact? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
