To the editor
Dear Sir, Since moving to Ohakune almost five years ago, I have been made aware of our contaminated water supply from time to time through ^newspapers. Yet again the Health Department has advised us to boil all drinking water. This is a disgrace. What does the council intend doing about it? As ratepayers are facing a savage rate increase, it
surely is not too much to expect that some of the rates should go towards rectifying this problem immediately. Indeed it should be priority number one. Electricity charges have risen by 25 percent. I for one feel fully justified in deducting power charges for boiling water from my rates.
