Taipa is set to get a flash new $193,000 flusher as visitor numbers soar in the Doubtless Bay settlement. The new $193,000 facility, which has been prefabricated by an Auckland company, has four unisex toilets with a stall for disabled users. FNDC general manager - infrastructure and asset management, Jacqui Robson, said Taipa residents and businesses had wanted the public toilets to be upgraded for some time. This facility will have two combined unisex and disabled stalls and will replace the existing toilet on Russell Esplanade. The two new toilet projects follow announcement in November of a public toilet for Broadwood made possible by a $120,000 grant from the new Regional Mid-sized Tourism Facilities Grant Fund.
