Poll: What's your preference for Hamilton's water services?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Some say a joint Hamilton city-Waikato district waters operation lets councils think beyond “lines on a map” and could help support more housing.

Others have big doubts about the details or want the idea binned.

The city council on Monday announced 74% of more than 220 submissions supported having the two councils form a joint council controlled organisation (CCO) to run drinking water and wastewater services.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
