Nelson residents counting the cost of private way oversight

Tim Newman Reporter from The Nelson Mail

The residents of Henrietta Way in Nelson overlooked the fine print about the ownership of the road when the subdivision was set up in 2005.

Now they're stuck with a $24,000 road repair bill shared between eight households, and want to warn people in similar situations not to make the same mistake they did.

HACKED FACEBOOK HELP

Paula from Stoke

Partner recently had Facebook account hacked and person is using it for bitcoin and getting other peoples accounts.
Facebook won’t respond to help so does any one know of people who can help or what to do.
So maddening.
