This applies to all properties serviced by the Council’s Queenstown supply including Frankton, Quail Rise and Tucker Beach Rd, Kelvin Heights and Hanley’s Farm. Jack’s Point is a privately operated water supply and is not affected.
There's been eight confirmed cases of illness causing severe diarrhoea and stomach cramps (cryptosporidium) in this area and while there is no confirmed link to the local water supply, they are acting with caution.
Boiling water kills any microorganisms that could be present. In the locations outlined above people are advised to boil all their drinking water for at least one minute (or use bottled water) including for brushing teeth, pets, and food preparation.
If you get sick, the best thing you and your whānau can do to stop the spread of cryptosporidium (crypto) infection is to practise good hand hygiene.
If you live in the Queenstown area or have visited there in the last 12 days and are experiencing these symptoms, please call your GP and inform them.
More information can be found on the Taumata Arowai website.

They might be eligible for Warmer Kiwi Homes, a government grant offering 80% - 90% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.
In August, the eligibility criteria were extended so over 50,000 more homes are eligible for insulation grants. It gets better - there are lots of community organisations offering extra funding to reduce the cost further.
Go to our website to check their eligibility, today.
