NVE: COVID Level 2 update
#DidYouKnow? #NVE has #COVID policies that are put into place for each NZ Alert Level. At Level 2, we are still open for business.. During this time we will conduct business a little differently to ensure that you, your families and our staff are all safe during this time.
Some things you can expect at #NZAlertLevel2:
* NVE will need to know whether you are well and whether you are isolating for any reason. Unless urgent, work may not be able to continue if you are sick or isolating.
* We ask that while our tradesperson is on site please remain at least two metres away from them.
* If it is a renovation and you are living in the house, then you need to discuss and plan with your builder how best to ensure how the construction protocols will be achieved. This should be documented and agreed. Your details will also need to be recorded for potential contact tracing on a daily basis.
* We would REALLY appreciate it if you could clear the area being worked on of your personal items before we arrive (tooth brushes, dishes, etc.)
* #NVETradies will take extra steps around cleaning the area, tools and equipment on a regular basis as well as their own personal hand washing.
* Staff may wear masks and gloves (or other PPE) depending on the nature of the work, they may also ask you to take precautions in a similar manner to protect everyone involved. There may be an additional charge for PPE if it is required.
* NVE requests that pets, children, and other people stay in another room, if possible, while work is being carried out. We love your kids and pets and we want to keep everyone safe.
Thank you for your patience & cooperation during this time. #LetUsKnowHowWeCanHelpYou

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

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?
