Save Money On Your Water Rates - Hibiscus Coast

Grouse Plumbing Ltd

Residents of the Hibiscus Coast will see an increase in their water bills starting July 1, 2024.

Watercare has announced that wastewater service charges will rise by 7.2 percent. Install a Rain Tank Water Meter to ensure you're only paying for the water you use.

If your household (or business) is connected to the public wastewater network and your primary water supply is a rain tank or bore – you may be able to switch to volumetric wastewater charging.
This means your wastewater charges will include a variable component, based on the volume of water that flows through your water meter. Alternatively, you can continue to pay a fixed charge, which stays the same no matter how much wastewater is discharged by your household or business.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
