Maintenance work on a Napier pond has stopped the city's only waterfall from falling.
The waterfall in Centennial Gardens has been out of action for several months, a Napier City Council spokesperson said.
She said the Infrastructure team at NCC have been working on a project on the pond which feeds the waterfall, including design work.
They are also obtaining a building consent for repair work which needs to be done on the bridge in the gardens, which is being done at the same time as the pond maintenance.
"The actual physical work is due to begin soon but is weather-dependent.
