Water Chlorination - tell the council we want chlorine-free water
Have you made a submission yet? Click on the council link below, then click on ANNUAL PLAN 2019/20. Click on the pink circle GIVE US YOUR FEEDBACK HERE and fill in your details. Scroll down to #7 WATER SUPPLY and click on DISAGREE. In the COMMENT box tell the council that you want chlorine-free water, and write a few sentences saying why you think Napier's water supply should be chlorine-free. Scroll down to the bottom and click NEXT. To end simply click DONE
We do not need chlorine treatment or expensive U.V. treatment plants - the council could save ratepayers millions of dollars if they follow what Christchurch is doing.
If Christchurch can go chlorine-free so can we - our aquifer is better than theirs.

Poll: What do you do with your stuff when you get the urge to declutter?
Life gets busy—really busy. Between work, family, appointments, and a never-ending to-do list, it’s easy for things to pile up. Add fast fashion, online sales, and homewares aisles that whisper “just one more basket won’t hurt”, and suddenly we’re swimming in stuff and tat.
Sometimes, that stuff is cozy and familiar. But other times, after a long day, you walk through the door, look around, and think: “Okay. Something’s got to go.”
And when that urge to declutter hits, the question is—where does it all go? We're not talking about broken bits and pieces, but those perfectly good things that simply no longer fit your life or your space.
In her piece When decluttering can’t be avoided much longer, Joanna Davis shares the everyday items she's finally ready to part with—and it might just inspire your own clear-out mission.
