RATEPAYER ALERT
WAIMEA DAM
In October 2017 TDC told us this, “Our share of the dam’s capital cost would be $26.8 million.”
TDC's share of the project cost is now $100 million and it is highly likely to be more before the dam is finished. We say that the irrigation businesses which will use 85% or more of the water should be picking up their fair share of this. If you agree then come to the protest meeting.
8:30 am 1st April outside TDC HQ, Queen St, Richmond. And pass the message on to all your friends.

Kmart duvet recall
Kmart will be recalling a number of their Anko duvet sets.
What you need to know:
- The recall is involving Christmas-themed duvets: Mrs & Mrs Claus Reversible Queen Size Bed Quilt Cover Set and Christmas Elf Reversible Single Bed Quilt Cover Set
- A recall of the products began in Australia following health concerns from several families.
- One woman said she thought she was having a heart attack after using one of the products which smelt of diesel.
- One customer said she’d purchased the quilt covers and said they smelled like gas. Another mum said hers did not have that smell but claimed her son developed a rash that only went away when he stopped using the product.
- The product is no longer available for purchase on the Kmart website.
Regardless of whether you have experienced an issue, customers who have purchased this item may return the product to store for a refund.
