New pumps improve western water supply
Just a heads-up that some homes in the Dinsdale/Nawton area may have some water pressure fluctuations in the next few days as we install new pumps at the Dinsdale reservoir. The work will improve consistency of supply for around 2000 homes, and we are replacing the two existing pumps with three, which means we will have better resilience in the network.
As we connect the new pumps to the network and flush the pipes there may be ‘sputtering’ of taps or the water may look a little cloudy as air works through the system.
From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
