Hey Hamilton, we don’t need to tell you how important water is (we all know it’s in the top three most important things). We want to show you how water works in Hamilton – how we keep the taps running, toilets flushing, and protect the environment and the Waikato River.

Why? Because changes are coming to how water services are delivered. Our city is growing, faster than most. And other changes are on the horizon too. Any change we make will be to benefit you – maximising efficiency, minimising cost increases to you, and looking after what we’ve got.

In March 2025, we’ll ask for your feedback on our plans for water. Before you wade in on that, refresh your memory on how water works for you.

It takes a team of more than 200 experts to run water services for Hamilton - making sure you get high-quality drinking water and returning treated wastewater back to the river. It's a huge job, and we're great at what we do. But, our city is growing. We need to continue to invest in our network and future-proof water for Hamilton.
