Looking for Flat land or Yard space for short term rental to store 3 Tiny Homes.
Hi Neighbours,
I am trying to help some people who have a huge problem with
3 Tiny Homes that they had built on their land which are not
allowed to be there under Council rules.
Not surprisingly the Council has given them an ultimatum to move them asap or they will send someone in to deconstruct them and remove as rubbish, (A ridiculous waste and creation of even more landfill but there you go).
Owners will also be charged for cost of this process.
We were hoping to have them brought to our yard to save them from destruction and try to find buyers for the owners but unfortunately we have now not got enough room for the 3 units to squeeze in.
The 2 bigger units are 12m x 4m and the smaller one is 10 x 3.
Is there anyone who has some space around the local Silverdale, Hibiscus Coast area or even out Dairy Flat that they could rent on a weekly basis until these could be sold?
Could be a nice way to help someone out of a tight spot as well as make a little extra money for xmas!
Please contact me if you can help and I will forward your details to the
owners.
Thank you.

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?
