St Albans News October 2021

Belinda Carter from St Albans Residents Association (SARA) Inc

The community housing in Coles Place may be taller than what was there a year ago but the rebuild is an opportunity to include a few more units and all will be warm and safe. The trust which is looking after the units is including a communal area at the centre and landscaping with a mixture of natives and productive trees and better for the tenants. But the neighbours aren’t so sure. Meanwhile the tennis club in Dover St has started the new season with resurfaced and colourful courts. All this and more in the October issue of the (now back again monthly) St Albans News, being delivered to letterboxes this week.

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?
