Wellington is rapidly running out of water and water meters may be the only solution.
Water meters in every house and daily water-use reports will be necessary for Wellington to avoid drought-like water shortages.
A new Wellington Water report prepared by Ernst Young and Beca recommended the region adopt a $144 million advanced metering infrastructure, with daily water consumption feedback and leak alerts provided to residents via a smartphone app.
The report warned leaks and over-consumption could put the region’s water stock under severe strain, and potentially cost hundreds of millions to fix.
At the current rate of water use and population growth, the amount of water needed to meet drought resilience water levels could exceed supply by as early as 2026.

Wellington Mayor Andy Foster was photographed on Sunday helping pitch a tent in Shelly Bay.
The tent belonged to Anaru Mepham, from Mau Whenua, group opposing the controversial Shelly Bay development. Mepham described himself as a sentry for protesters who are standing by to join him if the bulldozers moved in.
Wellington City Council earlier this month voted nine votes to six to sell and lease its land at Shelly Bay to Shelly Bay Taikuru, owned by developer Ian Cassels and his partner.
Foster campaigned on the promise to stop the development, which is also opposed by Sir Peter Jackson.

I have previous experience with looking after kids from the ages of 12 months to 11 years old and I have a current first aid certificate. I have been employed for 6 months or longer permanently but unfortunately this job is coming to an end at the end of year. I will be available every day full time except for Monday’s at this stage from early December. (After school term ends) I am also available during the school holidays and I am open to causal babysitting as well. I don’t have a set rate, just depends on job and responsibilities so rate is negotiable.

I can provide references 😊

I hope to hear from you soon.....

Some things about me…

I am great at following routines. I have also done respite care for 2 years and have worked with kids with severe asthma and epilepsy. I love arts and crafts, long/short walks, reading, playing at playgrounds and music. I have completed NCEA level 1, NCEA level 2 and have started Level 4 ECE certificate so I can also help with homework and I am almost fluent in Te Reo Māori.
