Rural landowners urged to speak up on wastewater options
Stuff — March 6, 0021Spokesman for a food and fibre group of interested farmers Peter Wells said landowners needed to be aware of the implications of the council’s combined land and river disposal option.... [...] Wells said he felt the council had invested its resources in other aspects of the Nature Calls project, and had not done enough to engage with farmers beyond the city who could be affected, so they were doing it themselves. The group was supported by Federated Farmers NZ, which would also be making a submission on the city council’s proposals.
