You have got to go. You have broken all the accepted rules of proper governance, using foul language in front of council executive, sending disgusting texts to associate councillors and more.
The worst thing is you compromised the council CEO, Marty Grenfell having to publically support you and not resign after your feigned resignation.
Had you made the same request to your fellow councillors, the result may have been different.
We in Tauranga are not ready for your arrogant leadership style.

Hang in there Tenby - don't let the bastards grind you down.

I would suggest rather than Tenby Powell having to go, some councillors and salaried staff remember why they are there. Tenby Powell was elected by a majority, had a mess to clean up, has been there less than a year and in that time has had to deal with backstabbing councillors, arrogant staff, very vocal and nasty neighbourhood groups and some very sore losers. This is enough to make a saint swear. The reputation of Tauranga's governance was a matter of comment and satire before but now we are the laughing stock of the country.

...and that, is the reason we need independant management to step in and a full review of TCC. When this sort of stuff is going on, how can there be any city progress?..even setting aside the all too common and expensive screw ups made at our expense. It surely has to stop at some point, we ratepayers will not accept it for much longer.
