I’ve visited dozens of affected homes in recent weeks, and some themes are familiar. Drain maintenance and drain capacity are critical factors. I am worried that the world will move on soon, and areas in need of work will not get it.
Below is a survey designed to record what happened and where, while memories are fresh. I will use this information to lobby the council for attention in specific streets.
Please feel free to share with your neighbourhood group, bodycorp, community Facebook Page, or anyone else who lives near you. The more responses, the more effective this project will be.
This survey is designed to capture:
• Whether you or your neighbours were affected by flooding on Friday 27 or Tuesday 31 January
• The height of water you experienced in each case
• Whether your home has been red or yellow stickered
• Whether you have needed to make an insurance claim
• Whether you are aware of previous issues with the stormwater system in your area and the nature of them
• Whether previous complaints about the stormwater system had been made to council.
My goal is to collate these results and present them to Council and Local Boards so that infrastructure issues in the Epsom Electorate are known and notified. I will not identify any individual without their consent, referring only to streets rather than specific addresses. The survey does, however, ask for your details so my staff or I can contact you if necessary to check or verify any information.
If you could take a moment of your time to complete this survey, I will be very grateful, and I think it will help ensure our community is heard on the specifics.
Once again, the link is below, and the survey should take you 3-5 minutes to complete.

One thing that people from all walks of life and across the political spectrum can agree on is this: the world is becoming more divided and divisive. Civil conversation is harder to come by, but it’s still the life blood of our democracy.

Civil conversation is harder to come by, but it’s still the life blood of our democracy.
I’m finding smaller, local, face to face gatherings have some advantages over online, big-stage events. That’s why I’m doing another round of street corner meetings in the Epsom Electorate.
Grab a coffee and head down to one of the following street corners at a time that suits you:
10:30am Cnr Victoria Ave & Sonia Ave
11:00am Cnr Victoria Ave & Combes Rd
11:30am Cnr Victoria Ave & Waiata Ave
12:00pm Cnr Orakei Rd & Rangitoto Ave
12:30pm Cnr Entrican Ave & Woodley Ave
1:30pm Cnr Orakei Rd & Dell Ave
2:00pm Cnr Benson Rd & Upland Rd
2:30pm Cnr Lucerne Rd & Martin Ave
3:00 pm Cnr Benson Rd & Ngapuhi Rd
3:30pm Cnr Ventnor Rd & Lucerne Rd
I hope to see you there!
