    Gore District Council has admitted it failed to ensure appropriate fencing was in place around oxidation ponds, where a runaway toddler drowned in 2019

    Gore District Council has admitted it failed to ensure appropriate fencing was in place around oxidation ponds, where a runaway toddler drowned in 2019


    3-year-old Lachlan Jones entered the ponds and drowned on January 29, 2019.

    According to the Otago Daily Times, court documents reveal stock-proof fencing was in place on three sides of the perimeter of the ponds, while the fourth side was unfenced.

    The council will be sentenced on March 6.
