Pandora Pond has been temporarily closed following an increased risk of illness.
An "increased risk of illness" has again led to the temporary closure of Pandora Pond.
Hawke's Bay District Health Board advised of the suspension of recreational activities, following water quality sampling carried out by Napier City Council and Hawke's Bay Regional Council.
They said rainfall and tidal influences have resulted
in increased levels of contaminants being found in the samples.
Since the discovery, signs have been installed to advise users at the Humber Street Reserve.
"We are aware this will affect planned events. Event organisers have been informed and will be in touch with participants to advise decisions around the use of the pond."
