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.
