As part of a sweeping series of reforms, a Mayoral taskforce report found Wellington City Council should transfer ownership of its $3.86 billion worth of pipes to Wellington Water, which would independently charge residents for water.
Removing pipes from the council’s books would mean rates could be slashed by as much as a third, though whether that would mean savings for ratepayers would depend on the level of metering charges.
Transformational change was needed in all parts of water management in order to future-proof the city, Foster said. “Tinkering around the edges is not going to do it.”

Have upgraded to PS5 so selling the trusty PS4. It’s a 500GB model, restored to factory settings. Fully tested and all in working order. Comes with one controller (in great condition), HDMI cable, power cord and ear piece.
Also comes with 10 great games (see photos). These all work and are in great condition as well. As you can see from photos, comes all boxed up in original packaging. Perfect gift for Christmas for a young gamer.
Willing to be a little negotiable on price but this is great value.
