What are your thoughts on Three Waters?

Georgia Weaver Reporter from Southland Times

An Invercargill city councillor suggests the Government’s Three Waters reform advertising should include a former telethon jingle given councils are being asked to hand over their assets.

Councils have until Friday to provide feedback on the Government’s plans to merge 67 different water organisations, currently run by councils, into just four.

Councils will hand over their water assets to those new entities who will take care of the responsibility for wastewater, drinking water, and stormwater across the country.

Reminder: Tomorrow is our national walk-in adoption day with 50% off adoption fees

The Team from SPCA Invercargill - Centre & Op Shops

That’s right – if you’re ready to adopt, you can swing by your nearest SPCA Centre tomorrow (Saturday 5 April) to meet the animals without an appointment ?

It’s our goal to Clear the Shelters, so we’re offering 50% off all adoption fees until Sunday 13 April. With 1,100 animals currently available for adoption across the country, we’d love for you to come along tomorrow and meet those waiting. ?

You can also head over to our website to check out their profiles, and register your interest early if there’s a particular cutie who catches your eye – this will speed things up on the day.

To keep the experience as calm and positive as possible for our animals and staff, we kindly ask that only those seriously considering adoption attend.

See you tomorrow!
