Angry mayors 'seek audience' with prime minister over water reforms
Mayors across New Zealand are mobilising against the Government’s push to force water reform on councils.
Waimakariri mayor Dan Gordon is leading the charge, and has drafted a letter to Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern seeking “an audience” with her to discuss different approaches to the three waters reform.
The Government announced late last month it was bringing in legislation to create four publicly-owned entities to control drinking water, wastewater and stormwater.
These services have traditionally been the core business of 67 councils across New Zealand, and the mandate has caused almost universal outrage among them.

“We owe it to our communities to play an active role in any change which will affect them.”
