The Queenstown Lakes District Council is the latest to leave the group, with councillors citing concerns for their ongoing relationship with iwi and the group’s strategy as reasons for changing their minds.
Deputy mayor Calum MacLeod voted in favour of joining Communities 4 Local Democracy (C4LD) in February, but at Thursday’s full council meeting and to Stuff on Friday, he said he had since seen “multiple red flags”.
He did not agree with the group’s reaction to the Three Waters working party's mahi, and felt their negativity was for negativity's sake.
The Three Waters working party involves local government leaders and Local Government New Zealand working with the Government to come up with compromises within the proposed Three Waters reform.
C4LD was founded in December by local government leaders who did not believe comprises were possible, and wanted to come up with alternative reforms for the Government to consider.

New Zealand’s national naming authority, the New Zealand Geographic Board (NZGB), recognises the atlas as an authoritative publication.
Ōtākou rūnanga representative Paulette Tamati-Elliffe said discussions about an application were happening among the seven tribal authorities with interests in the Central Otago area.
An application to the NZGB has not yet been made. Continue reading here.
