I see from an article on page 11 of last weekend's Sun, that the museum issue has raised its head again.
I ask the question, where is the money coming from? When a council is somewhere in the order of 500 million in debt, where is even the $100,000 coming from for Resource Consent!
Now, Councillor Faulkner says that this project will be non-ratepayer funded but money might come from BOP Regional Council. May I ask who funds the Regional Council? It's us, the rate and taxpayers! May I suggest Bill, that we will indeed be funding this project in some stealth way.
However, on another note, I would like to give credit to Council for its upgrade of the waterfront on the strand, without spending vast amounts of money.
