That's how you discuss Three Waters
An experimental 'deliberative democracy' process has been used by Watercare to get input from Aucklanders on future water sources, and it could provide a model for a more inclusive and equitable format for citizen participation.
The Newsroom article Citizen assemblies offer hope for democracy and climate change challenges describes how a diverse group of demographically representative Aucklanders has been working with Watercare to give a citizens' view on how the region’s water should be supplied in future decades.
Given that Watercare will become the largest part of the future "Northwater" Entity A, I'm hopeful that this process will be used more often in the future, to discuss, deliberate and decide the gnarly questions. It sure beats the social media wars and toxic narratives that we're engaging in at the moment.
