Community Board Dream Team & Scream Team

On the first Saturday of every month the Opinionated Islanders, Alan Knight and Alex Stone join Chris Walker on Island Life for a tongue-in-cheek look at local events and issues. This month they had an assignment - from the 18 candidates standing for the community board they had to pick their dream teams and their scream teams.

Correction:

In this podcast Alex Stone claims Councillor Denise Roche did not organise proxy or have anyone else speak for her when the waste management issue was debated by the council committee making the decion on the allocation of the tender.

In fact proxy is not possibe under Council rules and the committee is one on which Denise Roche was not a member and did not have a vote. Councillor Roche also did brief other councillors who subsequently spoke on the wate issuearguing for the rentntion of community control. These councillors were  Cr Cathy Casey, Cr Leila Boyle, Cr Graham Easte, and Cr Richard Northey.

Waiheke Radio apologises for the inaccuracy. We encourage you all to check out the statements from all community board candidates on our website www.waihekeradio.org.nz/candidates
