Last weekend's wet weather
Last weekend brought some wild weather! 🌧🌩☔️
We saw a number of roads affected by surface flooding as well as a number of wastewater overflows throughout the region.
When too much water gets into wastewater pipes it can overflow into the natural environment, typically during periods of heavy rainfall. We recommend you do not swim for two days following a heavy rainfall event. This is to not only protect you from contaminants from stormwater runoff, but also potential wastewater overflows.
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.
