Poll: Do you think this is the right way to decide?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

A specially appointed board will decide if a $200m waste-to-energy plant should be built in Te Awamutu.

The proposal by Global Contracting Solutions (GCS) has proved contentious, and would involve incinerating up to 150,000 tonnes of rubbish a year at a purpose-built plant in Racecourse Rd. It would generate electricity from steam.

Do you think sending it to a board of inquiry is the right call? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
