Cosy but boring!

Everyone in the neighbourhood is fine, except for the neighbours who live two houses away. They have a taxi company (Taxi Laanstra) and keep buying more vehicles while they can only drive two at a time. They fill the entire neighbourhood with their taxi vehicles and we no longer have any space to park our cars. We would really like to see a change in this. We would also like to have more green spaces and/or activities for the neighbourhood. That way we can talk to everyone and meet each other. This is good for society and especially for the youth, because they can make new friends in the neighbourhood. So that the primary school children can also play with each other in the neighbourhood in the evenings.
