Water your thoughts?
The Government is proposing reforms to three water services| in New Zealand. Although this is a Government process and we have limited influence over the outcome, we’re interested to hear directly from you to better understand the views of Lower Hutt about the Government’s proposals.
Head to hutt.city/threewaters to learn more about what the proposed reforms mean for Lower Hutt, and to complete a short survey before 13 April. We’ll use insights from this survey to inform our submission to Parliament when the reform legislation is introduced. You can also make your own submission – we’ll provide more information about this process closer to the time.
