SURBURBS NOW A GHETTO EVEN WITH PAID LEVIES

I have no outstanding levies that I owe! There is a drain outside my property that is caved in with the sharp edges facing up. The drain is INFRONT of my property which means each and everyday when I drive in and out I am faced with it! I happened to slash my tyre one day when I was driving in as I miscalculated how far the drain was (in the middle of the street). Called Whitfields to tell them about the drain, Nicole from Whitfields said this was the 1st time they were hearing about this only for me to find out from the trustees that they had alerted Whitfields about this drain! Second excuse from Whitfields was that Whitfields doesn't have any funds and therefore are unable to replace the drain and the tyre! A month later, I see a newsletter from Whitfields that they have collected over 91% of the levies from residents....I follow up with an email and she says they will fix the drain in a weeks time, no Mention of my tryre even though it got damaged as a consequence of the drain! Its been over a month, the drain hasn't been fixed and they are still maintaining their position over my tyre? Considering on taking the matter to the lawyers
