On Going Issue With Toilets In Tahunanui

Era from Tahunanui

I am not sure if anyone has been dealing with Nelson City Council (NCC), It has been so frustrated reporting ongoing issue with the public toilets around Tahunanui.

NO prompt action has been taken re complaint, it is really concerning/alarming. I reported to the area person in charge for the toilets/park for Tahunanui area on Monday, 9 May until today 16 May, it has NOT been actioned. The toilets have been poorly maintained, not being cleaned on daily basis, toilet papers are not replenished, stink and dirty from floor to toilets. Their cleaning contractor OCS that in charge for Tahuna is really slack and untrustworthy. Money from Rates payers has been wasted as usual. I ran out of idea how to bring this forward so it will not happen again. The only solution now I bring it to public. Anyone care/concern about hygiene/cleanliness at our public toilets in this Covid Endemic? please report it. Do you think these toilets all are okay?
