Rate Payers Money Poorly Spent Again

Tony from Rongotea - Awahuri

Just read the article on the front page of the Herald. Wow what a shocking waste of Rate payers money. Why are we gifting money to a Professional sport?? Why are we gifting $75,000 to Manfield to run 2 Rugby games?? Why is Manfield getting $75.000 to create a new Rugby ground for 2 games?? When you… View moreJust read the article on the front page of the Herald. Wow what a shocking waste of Rate payers money. Why are we gifting money to a Professional sport?? Why are we gifting $75,000 to Manfield to run 2 Rugby games?? Why is Manfield getting $75.000 to create a new Rugby ground for 2 games?? When you look at it from afar; Rugby at Representative level has always bee based and run in Palmerston North. Why move when there is no need??? Rugby and Stockcars have happily co egsisted for years in Palmerston North. If movement is absolutely necessary then take it to Rongotia. Easily could cater for these events??
Has a grandstand?? Pub next door with great food?? That's Grassroots isn't it?? As a Rate Payer this smells of under handed back room deals. Rugby union is a business and a very poorly and over funded one at that. Manfield is a Trust which should run itself without needing council hand out's. This is a BAD use of Rate Payers Money. Seems as though Manfield may need the money to pay the debt it owes to Manawatu District Council?? Very sly way to get the dollars moving around?? NOW to Manawatu District Council; If you have so much money just needing to be spent $75,000 then why not use it to benefit your RATEPAYERS??? This proposal does not benefit us at all. Oh sorry is it in an account that has a Title; DUMB and DUMBER spending only?? Who approved it?? Who even brought it to the TROUGH?? Spend it in the local community!! At the POOL; reduce the entry cost, increase swimmer training anything but helping Rugby. So after studying all the facts, allowing for DUMB and DUMBER, Poorly made decisions at Manawatu District Council, Manfield's cunning plan to grab $75,000 on a totally wasteful idea, Palmerston North's Council seeing after all the money spent over the years to accommodate RUGBY in the City that they get their face slapped, Then you have COVID-19 well that evil little virus could stuff it all up and cause said @ GAMES to be cancelled, BUT RUGBY WAS THE WINNER ON THE DAY oh and Manfield is of course $75,000 richer. There's my thought for the day enjoy you day

Driveways driven away by new rule

Hi neighbours,

A move to free up more land for new builds is likely to see fewer driveways and garages in modern housing, in a move some say could have New Zealand looking like Coronation Street.

Councils across the country must scrap planning rules that require car parks to be put down near new housing or business developments, under newly released housing guidelines.

The change comes as the Government looks to encourage development, in part by freeing up land held up by car parks, under its new National Policy Statement for urban development.

Property developer Phil Robinson said scrapping car park rules was a “big change”, but he was unsure if it was a “big win”.

What do you think of having more new builds in your area with fewer driveways and garages?

Your thoughts on making Matariki a public holiday

Hi neighbours,

Labour will make Matariki New Zealand's 12th public holiday from 2022 if re-elected, Jacinda Ardern has announced.

The new winter public holiday would fall at some point during the Matariki period, with an expectation that it would always happen on either a Monday or a Friday.

The policy announcement follows a series of public campaigns for Matariki, which acts as the Māori New Year, to be recognised.

We want to hear your thoughts about Matariki becoming a public holiday. Do you support the idea, or are you against it? Perhaps you have a counter proposal.
