How will a new job title and a considerably higher salary change job performance? What the council intends to achieve, seems different to what the community is asking.
In this Covid environment, the community wants rates freezes, council management salary cuts, cost compression, to hit pause on starting capital projects, with no overseas tourists around.
The Government indicates the hangover of Covid-19 is five years with its motel and MIQ negotiations.
Ratepayers have "skin in the game" and have a vested interest. They want to be heard, not ignored.

Speed bump disaster
What a disaster the speed bumps on Kawaha Point Rd are.
On Saturday, in the Rotorua Coffin Club hearse with a coffin in the back, I had to negotiate this hazard. Not a very dignified last ride.
Not every vehicle can ride over these bumps without an unpleasant outcome.
How do emergency vehicles cope?
