Clear the decks

Not a good look over the past few weeks for BOP councils – the Tauranga City Council CEO contract ended; general manager CEO's department resigned (scrap this position, it's anti-ratepayer anyway), CEO Bay of Plenty Regional Council resigned; Western Bay elected ninnies whacked 80/20 in Maori wards referendum; TCC $55 million museum referendum voted 60/40 against council's dreamers, then canned by councillors 7-4 along with councillors voting 6-5 to terminate the grandiose $43 miIIion city library.

So no Cliff Road or Willow Street, both Geotech challenged sites. Museumites are still distraught but who in their right mind would even contemplate these extravagances.

Remember right is might. Now the silent, irrelevant majority have been roused from their apathy, just get on the front foot and deal to the fiscal fools once and for all. Comeuppance is long overdue as their inane actions have threatened Tauranga's general wellbeing, financial and social outlook on life just like a rampant creeping cancer.

The four TCC councillors responsible for the misspent millions may be ensconced until the 2019 elections, but they all need shackling now, then booting out next elections. The cleanout is just starting. Keep up the momentum, identify the TCC bureaucrats responsible plus museum/library zealots and hold them to account.

R Paterson, Matapihi.
