Do you support water meters?
The Porirua City Council wants to increase rates by 8 percent a year for the next three years so it can invest in critically-needed infrastructure, joining other local authorities in the region looking to reverse years of chronic under investment.
The council is also considering installing water meters to encourage conservation and selling social housing to help fund the investment in pipes. The ideas are among those in the council’s draft Long Term Plan, which is out for consultation until the end of April.
