Attention: Welcome Bay residents
Update July 2pm - The water main is now fixed and supply to Welcome Bay is back to normal. Thank you to everyone who made an effort to conserve water!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome Bay residents are urged to conserve water for the next 24 hours.
We are working hard on fixing a complicated water mains break. This issue is reducing our ability to supply water into the Welcome Bay area and may be causing low pressure in Welcome Bay as well as Papamoa.
We are asking Welcome Bay residents to conserve water where possible for the next 24 hours, to ease pressure on supply in the area.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
