VERGING IN ON THE VERGE
The dilemma in Levin with residents told by its Council to start mowing and maintaining the grass berms/verges associated with their properties, brings to mind the many owners and renters where I live in Wallaceville Estate who do not mow or maintain the berms/verges they are responsible for despite the newness and otherwise attractive setting of this still developing residential area.
The UHCC have long ago decreed it is not responsible for berm/verge mowing and maintenance except when the verge is not "attached" to a private property or is so big as to relate more to a road in general.
This seems to be a happy compromise though there are quite a few miserable, shoddy residents who simply let the grass and increasing array of weeds grow anyway they like.
Most verges can be mowed in a couple of minutes and with many mowers rechargeable battery-operated, the cost is little or zilch. Weeding - try lawn weed spray for a start.
