Some people are quite happy to mow their verges, others are not. Gilmour St eg would look like a patchwork quilt. Manage Like · Reply · Message · 3w · Edited Elizabeth Mouat Another thing to consider is streets with open drains in the verges. eg Wilson St, Gilmour St has a small open drain, twice now I have nearly tripped as it is not easily seen.

One pet hate of mine is messy lawns! Manage Like · Reply · Message · 3w Sandra Taylor They need to be mowed by council their are many out their that don't consider mowing lawns as a priority , at least it gives a feeling that our town takes pride. They expect the council to mow it, yet they want to contribute nothing towards it , cost money to pay the contractor ,he has his overheads fuel, maintenance on mowers wages liability insurance and the general overheads of any business. I mow my own regardless . Manage Like · Reply · Message · 3w Michael Reehal Hi team. Please keep the berms mowed in Waihi as we have a great looking town.

Keep up the great work "fin" u do a fantastic job of making our town look nice & tidy Manage Like · Reply · Message · 3w · Edited Karen Shreeves The town relies a lot on tourists so needs to look good. We pay rates you mow berms. Not everyone is anal Neuf to keep their lawns perfect some of us have jobs and families my lawn gets done when and if I get time not everyone is financial enough to pay to get it done or physically able.

Manage Like · Reply · Message · 3w Hauraki District Council Hi Sandra, different areas are mowed with varying frequency, and sometimes mowing is delayed due to weather etc. When we have weather that encourages growth, we might find it hard to keep up! If you have specific spots that you think should have been done but are looking shabby, you can lodge a service request here: http://www.hauraki-dc.govt.nz/ser.../service-request-online/ ~ Sarah :) Manage Like · Reply · Commented on by Sarah Holmes · 3w Sandra Spence-Silberer Hauraki District Council well Sarah - this statement leaves us in a bit of a conundrum as we have witnessed on more than one occasion the council mower man come up the street and deliberately miss a property! For well over a year now the council has refused to mow this particular berm and on Gladstone rd it is a sizeable one. In fact the mower man himself admitted he had been told NOT to mow 2 properties on this street???? We are talking about a 72 yr old pensioner who has to now pay extra for someone to mow them when the rest of the street gets this service for free???? To make matters worse there is a daycare (which he council allowed!) Who use one of the berms for parking making a nasty pugged up mess during wet months. Consequently when she asked council what could be done about this matter her berms stopped being mowed by council!

But you're right, rates won't go down overall , as we have a lot of things we have to pay for.

Manage Like · Reply · Message · 3w Bebee Dawson Of course mow the lawns shouldn't even be an issue. Charge freedom campers $2 per night that should cover the cost of mowingand lower our rates.
