Water

Horowhenua District Council manages and maintains the water network that supplies water to homes and businesses in most parts of the District. Horowhenua District Council provides a town water supply to the urban areas in the Horowhenua and some rural areas.  Annual water rates are charged in some townships whereas water meters are installed in others and charged accordingly.

When conditions are dry and demand for watering the garden is high, water restrictions are put in place to avoid water shortages.
