The capital city of New Zealand has a problem; 45% of the city's potable water is lost due to leaks.
That's a lot of water lost and water restrictions have been introduced. But the council refuse to do anything about it, leaks can be literally found on every street. It is below Third World.
What the council are doing is holding the region to ransom, and demanding money from the taxpayer through central government.
Solution: the NZ Government should step in, sack the Wellington City Council and put in place a commissioner to run the city. This happened to Environment Canterbury previously, and it worked.
Do it now, be firm and decisive.
