Drops Not Dropping Off
Almost two months since first observed and still water is pouring 24/7 over the pavement through a leaky council water pipe.
The culprit is outside a dairy in Ward Street, Wallaceville. And the victims are the hundreds of people passing through daily as well as those who feel obliged to save water by not cleaning their vehicle or sprinkler watering their gardens and lawns.
Oh yes, the UHCC knows about it, and physically a council staffer/contractor turned up several weeks ago and beautifully marked the spot.
If this is typical, then shame on you local council.
Perhaps, this leak is just the tip of the iceberg as disintegrating piping may be revealed.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
