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

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
