Local Hamilton Gully Restoration Advocate, George Lusty, Passes

todd from EarthDiverse

EarthDiverse mourns the untimely and sudden passing of George Lusty, one of EarthDiverse's Environment Instructors in our Native Forest Restoration series of courses. His funeral was this afternoon. On the day he passed he was out leading a group of students on a practical gully restoration session. George passed doing what he loved most: sharing his knowledge, planting saplings and being with loved ones. Our heartfelt condolences go out to all of his family and whanua. George, you may be gone, but we will never forget you. With each Totara we plant we remember you and all you have given. Rest in Peace our friend and tireless worker for planet earth.

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.

Poll: Would you ever buy a total doer upper?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Housing stock is starting to move on the Coromandel Peninsula, including a dilapidated place one block back from Cooks Beach that sold to a Hamilton bargain hunter for $500,000.

Real estate companies are starting to see more deals go, however, prices have stabilised with high supply levels still outstripping demand.

Would you ever buy a total doer upper? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
