Auckland Council Healthy Waters is working on an initiative to promote the installation and use of residential rainwater tanks across Auckland. This is in response to the current drought situation and to encourage Aucklanders to be more water resilient and empower us to be part of the water solution.
A cross-Council team is working to provide more information about the consent process to install a water tank and remove costs where possible. On July 1 2020 Council took the first step by removing resource consent fees for rainwater tank only applications for residential homes (in the vast majority of cases).
Below are several pieces of collateral and links to information that you may find useful.
Thanks to all STEPS members & community who helped us with plantings on the Roy Clements Treeway. Kath, Julie, Fleur, neighbours Talia and Charlie, Neil, Mac, Trevor, Freddie and Sel were just a few of those who helped out. The plants were provided by the Local Board, and Local Board members Margi and Christina were there on the day.
On Saturday 18th more plants were put i the ground by Freddie, Trevor, Sel, and Liz – with just a few left now for under planting.
