POSTPONEMENT of Cultural Storyboards opening and blessing

Waitomo District Council, with the support of Ngāti Rōrā, have made a call to POSTPONE the official opening and blessing of the Mangaokewa Walkway Cultural Storyboards. This is due to areas of the walkway suffering from washouts and flooding from recent weather events. The installation of the storyboards and blessing will be held later in the year, which will allow for the walkway to be repaired and stabilised. We thank you for your understanding.

Please conserve water - Western area of Te Kūiti

10 Nov 2023, 12:14 PM

UPDATE: The main waterline has been repaired, but we are expecting it to take a bit longer until we are fully operational and water supply reaches all areas again.
Don't forget that when you turn your taps on again, there is likely to be dirty water. Please flush until the water is clear.
This would be a great opportunity to collect the water in a bucket to pour on your vege garden or flower garden.
A main waterline connected to our Hetet Street reservoir in Te Kūiti has been broken while nearby works were being undertaken.
There is a likelihood that houses in the western area of Te Kūiti may experience an interruption in water supply.
We ask at this time for you to please conserve water while we work to fix the breakage.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
