Give ratepayers say on pool spend

About the hot pools I think the chairman Warren Banks of TCAL has got his numbers the wrong way round, that it was 20 people for the 10 million of rate payers money to be spent on the pools not the other way round.
Most of the 20 did not pay rates and if he and the Mayor Council think they are right, why not put a voting paper in the next rate bill and all ratepayers could have their say. They should not spend any more until the people have spoken, as for the cost of $1million, did they not a few months ago tell us that the Mount hot pools were the only pool that made money, not like Bay Wave that cost us $2 million per year. If it the hot pool had some money spent on maintenance, it could have saved having months of shut down and loss of revenue.
Cr Moultrie that TCAL should have had a lawyer lead its application at the resource consent hearing, paid for by us ratepayers does this mean that any one else will be able to have a lawyer paid for by the ratepayers if they do not agree with what the Council wants to do? Or is he offering his service free to the council, or is he touting for work?
