Interesting Facts

Our vision is for everybody in the Far North to have access to sufficient, safe and reliable sources of drinking water that is provided in a sustainable manner. Our water treatment plants, pumping stations and reticulation systems contribute to that by providing the treatment and delivery of safe drinking water to communities served by Council owned systems.

Water supply is regarded as one of the core functions of council, as provided by statute. The local government act 2002 generally requires the continued operation of any water system that council operated at the time the act was passed, as well as continuing to operate any new system that the council constructs from that date.

What has changed since the LTCCP

There are no significant changes to the WATER SUPPLY priorities since the publication of the 2009/19 LTCCP.
