Christchurch City Council services are continuing to be disrupted by the country's growing Omicron outbreak
28 February 2022
Canterbury and South Canterbury DHBs recorded a combined one-thousand-25 new Covid cases yesterday.
There are three people receiving hospital care in the region.
Council Chief Executive Dawn Baxendale says there are contingency plans in place to make sure essential services get delivered through the Covid peak.
She says while they're expecting a lot of staff absences -- she's confident the council's three waters services will continue as usual and people will still get their bins emptied.
If high numbers of staff are away at libraries, sport and recreation centres, service centres, the Christchurch Art Gallery or Akaroa Museum -- they may need to temporarily close or reduce hours of operation.
