This Bay of Plenty business needs your support!

Prospa

A huge congratulations to Team at Benny and Crew from Benny and Brew. These local legends are finalists in the Prospa Local Business Hero Awards.

Now they need your vote to give them a chance to take home a prize package worth $10,000!

Good on you, and good luck, Team at Benny and Brew. Thanks for bringing joy to your community.

***********

Nominated by Annika Corley from Tauranga: "Benny and Brew - Our neighbourhood was missing a great cafe and meeting place. Since Benny and Brew has opened they have given our neighbourhood a massive lift. The coffee is great and the food is divine! It's one of those places where you go for the people, and the fact the food and drink are delicious is icing on the cake. For a bit, they were able to open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings as a French bistro and the food was to die for! Due to some difficulty finding staff in the time of Covid, unfortunately, the bistro isn't currently happening. These guys have worked so hard and brought such joy to our neighbourhood. I would love to see them get an award!" Vote for Benny and Brew

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

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.

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?
