•    Is your water metered and you want to reduce your bills?
•    Would you have enough water in a real civil defence emergency?

-         tank flush systems
-         bylaws and restrictions
-         planting around the tank
-         further options for reusing your water
-         the $500 rebate from Rodney District Council when you implement this

We had a couple of students with us yesterday from the local high school so we got them creating a flyer for our second Transition Town meeting on 6th of December. We based it loosely on a poster we found for a Brighton meeting. Thank you to both Matthew and Simon for your efforts.
