Head and Shoulders

As a ratepayer who attended the Mayoral Candidate /Papamoa meeting, I am not at all surprised that Stuart Crosby has been re-elcted. He is definitley head and shoulders above any of the other candidates- and also does not have an ego that needs to be fed. I just hope that he has some councillors with ability in this "NOT-QUITE-A-NEW-LOOK" lot
PROVEN LEADERSHIP

Double the debt in three years Rates set to increase 17.8% next year Rates plan is for 20-25% for a few years after that. Councillors generally were scrapping daily, childrens behaviour ... 17000 votes out of 80,000 is 21.25% voter approval. THAT MEANS 78.75% DID NOT VOTE FOR HIM. GUESS WHAT ... all carries on as usual(see above) like UNBELIEVABLE !!!!!!
