Poll: Will a $21m Living Earth upgrade solve the Bromley stench one and for all?

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Hey neighbours,

A multimillion-dollar upgrade will go ahead for the compost plant causing the infamous Bromley stench.

The foul stench has plagued the Christchurch suburb for years and left some residents on the brink of selling up. Others claim the plant is responsible for exacerbating health issues.

About $21.5m will be spent to enclose and upgrade the Living Earth plant to limit the odour spreading into the public.

Do you think this will help to rid Bromley of the infamous pong?

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
