Love Where You Live - February 1st to 29th šŸ„°

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

Love is in the air this month! Weā€™re not just talking about Valentineā€™s Day... weā€™re talking about this monthā€™s national campaign.

Our theme for February is all about finding ways to show your home and community a little extra love and care. Whether itā€™s organising a street clean up, helping a neighbour tidy up their property, putting together a working bee, or installing a communal pātaka or library - there are countless ways to make our neighbourhoods more enjoyable for everyone.

Donā€™t forget to share the love! Let us know how youā€™re improving your neighbourhood this month by email or tag us online and include the following hashtag:

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesnā€™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?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

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% ā€œaffordableā€ 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).

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say heā€™s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!

John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
