Te Mata Rd protest
Every day I drive past the former proposed site for the cell tower and I feel it’s very kind of the current owners to want to lower the property values by making the area look like an LA slum. It’ll make it easier and cheaper for first home buyers when you sell up.
But really folks, isn’t it about time to remove the graffiti sheets and get on with life? They are attracting taggers to the area, which will then attract other criminal elements.
The electoral candidate hoardings are a distracting eyesore enough, without adding to the visual pollution, and unwanted attention.
Like it or not, you’ve made the neighbourhood look like areas you wouldn’t drive through with the doors unlocked.
