CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations to the Housing Trust for persauding the Mayor and Council into reconsidering their stance on social housing. The Trust has a passionate, knowledgeable and courageous spokes person in Teresa Homan.
What the Trust achieved was because they turned up in person and let their elected representatives know what the people who live and pay rates here in, want their city to be. Which is not to exclude a demographic with marginal choices from being able to live in Upper Hutt, whether they orignated here or not.
Democracy in action, reminding our elected representatives and public servanats – who serves who.
I read about it in the Leader – Front page no less – I thought those days were over!
I do have to question as to why the Mayor and Council are lacking the compassion to help house our citizens, whoever they are, whatever their circumstances?
Is there an agenda by this Mayor and Council to discourage a certain demographic from being part of our city scape?
LIBRARY
Well every time I go something else isn't working, 2 weeks ago it was the system that allowed you to borrow a book and get a receipt, The Librarian issued my book and return date with pen and paper. I look forward to a Library Review Meeting!
