Property Water Meters, another NPDC rort!
Very quietly, i have realized that the cubic meter volume of water we now are charged for, has increased In July 2017 the meter was installed and a water cost of $1.28 per cubic meter was the charged rate. Here we are now, June 2022 and the rate has increased, with no transparency or forward notification, to $1.68 per cubic meter. Yes, 40 cents or close to a increase cost per volume of 30%. Yet this product [WATER} is free, by law in the Local Govt Act. How come now we are paying for such a increase. No prior knowledge or fan-fare to let rate payers know? Also remember Councilor Handley , when he installed his water meter, front page of the Daily News; he was to have a report every so often, on the savings it concurred. Haven't seen a squeak on that one! Councillors, are you aware of this cost increase?

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
