Burger King stinking up Auckland neighbourhood

Fiona from Henderson

Apart from living near a sewage treatment plant, I couldn't think of anything worse that the vile smell of (burnt) cooking oil 24/7.
I have lived near a rubbish tip many years ago and believe me it smelled 'sweeter' than the horrendous pungent odours that are emitted from any fast food place.
KFC is up there as one of the worst, then McDonald's and followed very closely by most other fast food places.
There should be a law (either nationwide or locally) that you can't have them placed in such close proximity to residential areas, nor should they be operational 24/7.
No one should be held prisoner in their own home by the revolting odours floating around all day.
the days of hanging out your washing in the fresh breeze will be gone forever and as this gentleman mentioned, so will be sitting on your back porch or deck or back yard.
Something has to be done to stop the hideous smells from permeating into our lives.!!!!
