What is your view on water meters?
There is a move to introduce water meters across the region.
A Wellington Water report recommended the region spend $144 million on infrastructure which would allow it to record and report on residents' daily-water usage, in a bid to encourage residents to save water and prevent drought-like shortages.
Mayor Campbell Barry wants Lower Hutt residents to be consulted on whether households across the region get water meters.
