⚠ PLANNED WATER OUTAGE – WEDNESDAY 20TH MAY BEATTIE CLOSE ⚠
We are installing a new service into the water supply network in the area. This means we have to turn off the supply between 3:30pm and 7:30pm on Wednesday 20th May (tomorrow), affecting one commercial property in Beattie close, Kenepuru, with no impact on residential properties in the area. The water will be back on as soon as possible, but we recommend that those in the commercial property affected fill up some containers with water before 3:30pm and avoid running the dishwasher, washing machine etc. We apologise for any inconvenience this has caused.
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?

Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
