Water restrictions

Communications from Tauranga City Council

Flow in the streams that supply Tauranga’s drinking water continues to be at a record low. To ease pressure on the streams, water restrictions remain necessary to care for stream health and safeguard supply.

These images show flow over the weir in the Tautau and illustrate the problem well - between November 2020 and March 2021.

To accommodate the end of daylight savings, you can now water by handheld hose or watering can between 5am and 8am, and 5pm and 8pm.

A big thank you for your support in caring for our streams.

Good Warm Home Loan ANZBank

Anna from Mount Maunganui

Just advising that anyone who is renovating should apply first this loan - even if they don’t need it. With the escalating costs AND hidden problems that you may come across you can go well over your budget and find this 1% interest loan useful. It is for 3 years and specifically targets items like double glazing

You don’t see this Ioan on the front page of there website and have to read carefully terms ad conditions.

If anyone has had success in getting their loan halfway through their renovation I would love to hear from you
