11Mar20 0708 #5 Corona virus: septic tanks update
Update and last post on this septic subject since my #4 post two days ago. This morning I talked again to Auckland Council's help phone-line 09 301-0101. They hadn't done much thinking since my first call 9Mar20. So septic tank owners .. we are pretty much on our own for now. But the phone line team leader did say that any household in isolation should call their septic tank contractors, notify them about the isolation so they can take appropriate precautions, and ask the contractors to clean-out the tanks.
As I look out down the valley here along Redoubt Road and watch the rain settle in I can't help but remember Auckland University Associate Professor Wiles' recommendation: form a support group with your neighbours so you can help each other. Here's the link: bit.ly...
Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?
It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.
Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
