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

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
