Call for water take consents review as lake levels plunge
Brent Morrissey says Lake Tomarata’s water level usually reaches within half a metre of the barrier’s edge on the shore during summer. The barrier was built to provide a shallow area for children to swim, but there is currently nothing for them to swim in.
Calls for Auckland Council to reassess groundwater take consents in Tomarata and Te Arai are growing in volume as local lakes suffer.
Former Auckland Regional Councillor Brent Morrissey has lived next to Lake Tomarata for 25 years and says he has never seen the water level so low.
