The lurking Red Suzuki Swift

Marsh from Flagstaff

Whilst it's not illegal to park up on the side of the road (unless on yellow lines) this car for the last several weeks has been parking up on Tuirangi street (towards the end of the cul-de-sac) prior to school hours like 7.45am for about an hour, then disappears only then to re-appear around 2.30pm through to 3.30pm-4.00pm most days EXCLUDING weekends. A few weeks back I approached the driver parked up and he got tetchy and bolted... a few days later he re-appeared again this time parked two doors down from where I live and stayed for 2 hours and zoomed off when I started to go and approach again. But it was only a matter of hours and he was back. This morning he was parked in the opposite direction outside 41 Tuirangi Street and then again this arvo at 2.30pm when I pulled over and asked can I help.... or who are you looking for?? Moments later he bolted as I waited down the street. He would be the age of 60-70 years of age. What's even more creepy... he lives off Magellan Drive (Mataroa Cres) as this time I followed him. I have camera footage of him driving past most days. Again while it's not illegal to park up anywhere.... this rings alarm bells especially as their are young children on our quiet street. Even the builder next door asked me who this person is as he was combing the street (the builder was on the street for 3 weeks). So letting you all know... keep an eye out.... something is not right about this......

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?
