Tauranga's Unelected Council Shambles

[Joshuatree]

Destroying a city is quite an ‘achievement’. 😂

The Commissioners have bent Tauranga over and given it one hell of a rogering. Tolley and her hubby have bought a lovely property in Sussex in England, and she will be able to leave the appalling mess behind for others to attempt to clean up.

What appalling mess?????? All i see is huge improvements to the city with a few billions of Dollars of projects going in downtown Tauranga. I really enjoy biking Cameron road now and know it's much safer to do so. The commissioners are not responsible for the parking building btw.

The commission noted that there is serious concern amongst our key strategic and community partners that the progress the city has made over the last two-plus years could be undone if the commitment needed to address Tauranga's identified issues is not maintained," they wrote.

"And that a return to a fully-elected, new and inexperienced council could result in dysfunctionality similar to that experienced prior to the commission's appointment."

Protect their gravy train, at all costs.

Nope ,protect the momentum and progress that has been achieved.Im all for a hybrid approach with one commisioner on board with the elected councillors.The last thing we need is the same motley bunch of infighting self promoting councillors we had prior.Hopefully we get new blood with the right skill sets to work cohesively together.

So they actually got round to naming individual trees in the empire after each of the unelected Quazi Govt Squatter appointees, while the trail of destruction was in progress ?

Obviously it didn't get noticed further up the chain, because no new Damehoods or Knightings eventuated from trying to orchestrate commissioned change in a City that didn't want them around
