Willowpark Road North Water shutdowns
Upcoming water shutdowns for Willowpark Road North and surrounding streets:
Wednesday 13 December, 9:00am-3:00pm
Thursday 14 December, 9:00am-3:00pm
Friday 15 December, 9:00am-3:00pm
At the above dates and times, Fulton Hogan Water on behalf of Hastings District Council will be undertaking watermain decommissioning works which will require the water supply to be shutoff.
During these times, it is recommended that you leave all cold-water taps turned-off. When the supply is restored, all taps should be run for approximately 3-5 minutes before water is used for drinking or food preparation.
If your water is milky or cloudy, fill a glass with water and leave it to stand for a few minutes. If the cloudiness clears from the bottom of the glass upwards it shows that the cloudiness has been caused by air. The tiny air bubbles will rise to the surface and cloudiness will disappear. Rest assured; cloudiness caused by air in the water is not harmful to your health.
We apologise for any inconvenience cause. For any questions, please contact Hastings District Council on (06) 871 5000 or email customerservice@hdc.govt.nz.

And the 2024 Prospa Local Business Hero is...
A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.
The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.
The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'
Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
