Dirty water AGAIN

Joy from Tamatea

Hi Neighbours
Like a lot of other people my water was filthy over the last three days. As usual I ran the cold tap for about 25mins first thing til the water looked much clearer as per Council instructions. I then ran the cold tap again at lunch time into the bathroom hand basin.It was discoloured again and when i let the water out the hand basin was left with what I can only discribe as a coating of grey silt.....and I had been drinking this,,,not out of the hand basin of course but during the morning cuppa. I phoned the Council and was told that as I had only complained on two previous occasions they didn't know it was happening!!!!!! It's only been happening for over two years. I was told I should ring them every time the water was dirty so they could work out a plan and find out where the problem is I don't hold much hope of it changing things but it is said the age of miracles isn't past . So LET US ALL phone the Council every time we find our water the varying shades of brown and see what happens
Good luck in getting through on what should be very busy lines.

Fluoride Free Procession and Protest

Kevin Neighbourly Lead from Mahora

Thursday 18th April at 11am.
Many Hawkes Bay residents will have seen notices and petitions that Fluoride Free Hawkes Bay have circulated. Hastings District Council added hydrofluorosilicic acid to our water supply without informed consent, and without warnings placed at the Flaxmere and Havelock Nth water distribution points. This toxic chemical is harmful to many but especially pregnant mothers and bottle-fed babies.
Fluoride Free New Zealand and NZDoctorsSOS have filed an injunction in the high Court contesting this action.
On Thurs residents are urged to meet at the Hastings Civic Square, and then at 1130am sharp proceed through the Hastings CBD, arriving at HDCouncil about 12noon where professional speakers, local and throughout New Zealand, will explain the problems with this recognised poison.
Please share this public notice to whanau, family and friends.
