This is a question for Waterloo residents - Water contamination (sand in water)
Hi,
I just want to know if residents along Waterloo Rd. has any issues with 'sand in their cistern' (toilet cistern) and resulting in blocked / slow flow of water coming into cistern??
I have a property along Waterloo Rd. And it's the second time I'm calling my plumber to clear the blockage. Anyone else in this street having same issues?? If it is due to the main water supply and many others are facing the same problem, I can approach the appropriate council department to sought this out. Can't keep paying for this if it's a council supply problem. Thanks. Frank
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
