when our damns are less than 50% full and Auckland Council asking people to continue to conserve water, why AC is intending to wash the building/window wash at 135 Albert street? - note the building was washed a year ago.

This is their response::::
Auckland House has not been externally washed for some time, I believe it has been more than a year since the last building wash happened. Some of the façade external components deteriorate due to the climate and location of the building, so we need to perform a building wash at least once a year to extend the life of the asset
On top of this, the building wash is used to investigate the quality of windows sealant and windows in general, so we can fix leaks and repair where necessary.
We have asked the contractor, Ventia, to ensure they are using the minimum possible amount of water during the building wash. We’ve agreed on few points, as follows:
A flow control valve will be used to decrease the pressure and the amount of water used.
Water is only going to be used once triggered by the technician.
A water meter to measure the quantity used for the building wash.
We believe these activities will reduce the water consumption to the minimum required.
Really building wash every year???? BCs take note this is not a necessary expense on owners - as the rain in Auckland will do the bulk of the job in keeping windows/walls clean .

Hi Neighbours, Auckland Council is winding up the citywide revaluation of all properties, as a basis for carving up next year's rate's pie. Analysis for Stuff shows cheaper suburbs, especially the south may face higher than average rate rises in July 2022. How will you fare?

In extreme cases, an alcoholic may be homeless, but many live in families that are struggling because of the challenges that come with problem drinking.
Family members become lonely, isolated, ashamed and depressed. They feel that life has become unmanageable or unbearable. Al-Anon-Alateen Family Groups is a support programme for people who are living with or have lived with the problems of someone else's drinking.
Al-Anon and Alateen for young people offer understanding and personal growth - whether the alcoholic is still drinking or not. There are free of charge meetings daily around Auckland. To find one visit online here.
Members share their experiences of applying the Al-Anon principles to their lives. There is no advice given or specific direction suggested.
Below are a few thoughts from people who have tried Al-Anon:
"I believed that the only thing I needed to be happy and safe was for my husband to stop drinking."
"My life had got so out of control not knowing what my state my daughter would be in when I got home."
"I thought I was strong enough to deal with this on my own...After trying everything, I went to my first meeting."

I had buried inside
And let value shine through
I thought had died
Burning embers
Awakened trust
You sprinkled me
With fairy dust
Shafts of prisms
Preserved like treasure
Off the chart
To explore at leisure
That, although you dug
And touched the centre
My self worth
Was never yours to measure
