Landlord refuses to fix toilet for months even when poo leaked

Melanie Earley Reporter from Western Leader

Kia ora neighbours, tenants had to move out of their Kelston rental after their landlord failed to fix sewerage problems for months.

The tenants took their landlord Mauri Ora Limited to the tenancy tribunal and said there were times they’d flush the toilet and faeces and toilet paper would come out the other side of the house.

In August 2021, the tenants moved into the rental and noticed sewage was coming out of the trap by the front door for the first month they lived there.

They told Mauri Ora Ltd about it and a plumber was sent and put tape over the trap. The tenants said this made sewage leak out of a trap on the other side of the house instead.

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?

PURPLE MONTH (EPILEPSY AWARENESS) EVENT

Renee from Henderson

Hi everyone! I'm Renee and I am the educator for Epilepsy NZ covering the Waitematā.
This month (March) is Purple Month, a month where we recognize, raise awareness and raise funds to support people living with epilepsy in our community.
Purple Month often culminates with Purple Day - March 26th.

This year also happens to be the 70th anniversary of The Epilepsy Association of New Zealand and so I am putting together an event to also celebrate that which I'm hoping will be a bit extra special!

This event will take place on Friday the 20th of March at the Te Atatu Peninsula Community Centre.
I am sending out a call for bakers, artists, businesses willing to contribute raffle items, and all around good-sorts who would be willing to donate their time and talents to this event, supporting those who live with epilepsy and the service we provide them.
I myself will be hosting/MC'ing the event and providing some live music and would love to invite along other musos who would be willing to participate in this as well.
Please reach out to me at auckland.nth@epilepsy.org.nz if you are keen to contribute or be involved in some way and I hope to see lots of you lovely people there!
