Concrete spatter from roadworks
Was anyone travelling between Palmerston North hand Hastings on Monday night and effected by concrete spatter from roadworks? If so, can you let me know where you picked it up and (if possible) who the roading company was? We didn't see any "wash your car" signs you normally see at the sights using concrete when resurfacing. We arrived home in the dark and didn't see the front of our car was covered. We parked the car up and only returned to it today and have a serious problem on hand. I've been trying the concrete cleaner from Bunnings and it's mildly useful at best.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?
