Impulsive approach is concerning

Mayoral candidate Phil Mauger says he wants to ‘‘get stuff done’’. He says it three times in his bio. But what is he actually going to do?

I find his impulsive attitude worrying. He literally bulldozed his way into notoriety, over some flooded land.

He claims he’s going to rescind decisions already made regarding the Harewood to the city cycleway, costing the city more money.

He says he’s going to cut meetings right down, which to me smacks of dictating as opposed to democracy. And now he’s threatening the beautiful and iconic trees on Hagley Park, so people can park under them.

When it comes to using our city’s precious money and resources, I would prefer amore considered approach to decision-making, rather than cowboy stunts.
