We've reached 10,000!

Oliver Neighbourly Lead from One Tree Point

New Zealand’s 10,000th electric vehicle owner received a visit from associate transport minister and climate change minister James Shaw on September 21.
“Ten thousand EVs is an important milestone, particularly when you think that five years ago we had just 210 EVs registered,” Shaw says.
The full article can be found on EV talk.

Everyone with an honest interest in EVs is welcome and encouraged to participate, be it posting and responding, or just listening in to learn more, no matter if already an EV owner, or just interested, or on the fence, or new to the topic, or sceptical, or even opposed.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

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?
