Hauraki District Council Mayor, Toby Adams, is not giving his blessing to the Government’s revised Three Waters Programme.

The refreshment of the scheme, now referred to at Affordable Water Reforms, was announced late last week.

Adams said while the scheme may assist some councils, his had made significant and appropriate water investment over the years.

He said Hauraki had invested where it needed to invest. He did express concern on residents having to pay twice for water services.

CFM has approached Thames Coromandel District Council for an interview with the Mayor or a statement from council.
