Changes coming to Porirua City parking
Paid parking is set to resume in parts of Porirua’s central city, as a way to keep rates increases as low as possible.
New time limits and charges will apply in some areas from Monday 6 March. Paid parking was first introduced a year ago, then paused while the city worked through the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Prices vary from $1 to $2 per hour, and there are various time limits. There’s also a range of all-day paid parking options available for those who work in Porirua, capped at either $5 or $10 for the day.
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?
