Councils are responsible for a wide range of utilities and services that we all rely on, from rubbish and recycling to street cleaning. Councils are currently also responsible for managing waste water, storm water and drinking water infrastructure – the ‘Three Waters’. But that may be about to change, with central government seeking to shift the delivery of Three Waters services to four new larger entities, which could borrow enough to upgrade the country’s water infrastructure.

  • Actively engage with the community on the Three Waters project, seeking out answers to enhance the transparency of government actions.

    Actively listen to the community's thoughts on the super-local issues that matter on their own streets such as kerbing, paths and lighting.
