Could 6,000 be attracted in the age range 18-35 years old to South Waikato with $5 new sections?

After three days listening to submissions to the district council I have go to know the mayor 77 year old mayor and councillors better,as a team.

Also the staff.

Both the mayor and the CEO were offered YouTube clips of the preceding days proceedings and said they do not watch YouTube. 

Wow 

But this is the same submission that councillors had not discussion time over and just passed on better access to the pools for swimming lessons for the children and access to land for building houses for new families. Both core business of council and with the CEO and Mayor not interested in the substantive nature of the policy the rest of the councillors have nothing to discuss on the agenda.

In fact 18,000 new sections to provide 50% of the population with a free hold section was not considered the time of council deliberation.

But their is no other place to go.

Council holds the keys to subdivisions. So if they are not interested to talk about core business then central government is the only place address for redress.

Let's see if the Members of Parliment watch YouTube.
