Regarding fees for alfresco dining at Tauranga and Mount Maunganui, I think the charges are disgusting.
Tauranga is already dead and we don’t even bother going there unless it’s to the library. It’s really just too depressing there.
The Mount had always been more vibrant but this will just be another nail in the coffin for coffee/ food businesses.
These fees are a major mistake.
