KCDC Review
How many interested in the performance of KCDC have read the report from the external review.?
It is yet again another total waste of Ratepayers money. It has some possibly useful stuff to them about governance and relations between the executive and the councillors but it doesn't at all cover communications between the KCDC and the ratepayers which is at the core of most of their failures. KCDC simply do not listen to ratepayers wishes. They are not our servants. The tail is wagging the ratepayer dog.
It also does not address at all their financial affairs. They are out of touch with the wishes of the community advising us they have done the hard yards in cutting costs and pruning the nice to haves, yet proposing inflicting us with yet another rates rise which in these dire financial times is immoral. Still sitting there in the budget for example and costing $4.4m, is the Kapiti Gateway - a monument to what?
KCDC is the 2nd most indebted Council in NZ yet they spend our money constantly on many projects that if put to the ratepayers would get a resounding no.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
