#FLOODUPDATE
Thanks to those who have reported issues as a result of the flooding from this morning’s downpour – it helps our team respond and resolve faster.
Our team will continue monitoring and resolving any issues that arise – so please get in touch with us or your council if you have any issues.
Please remember to avoid swimming for up to 48 hours following flooding as per recommendations from Regional Public Health.
Today’s wet weather is also a timely reminder as we head towards the winter months, to check and clear your gutters and drains, as blockages here can cause major issues.
