9 year plan feedback
Should we remove 231 Stuart Street (formerly the Fortune Theatre) from the list of strategic assets in the DCC Significance and Engagement policy?
Yes, remove 231 Stuart Street from the list of strategic assets (this is our preferred option)
Do you have any comments about 231 Stuart Street?
231 Stuart St would be best sold to a developer to be repurposed for residential use.
Should we charge an entry fee of $20 (incl. GST) for international visitors aged 16 and over, at Toitū and Dunedin Public Art Gallery?
No, do not introduce an entry fee of $20 (incl. GST)
Do you have any comments about the entry fee for international visitors?
This is not a particularly good idea. Charging an entry fee for international visitors is unlikley to generate significant revenue and will deter other visitors.
Is there anything else you would like to tell us?
Local Water Done Well feedback
Which water services delivery model do you support?
The Council’s preferred option: an in-house delivery model
Why did you choose this option?
I prefer that the DCC retains operational control of our water assets. It's important there is sufficient public scrutiny to ensure these assets are maintained properly in the future. Previously the DCC has deferred investment in water assets to save money in the short term, but will be unlikely to get away with this in future. A CCO delivery model may not provide the necessary operational transparency, or accountability needed to avoid the problems of the past.
Do you have any other feedback related to the proposed water services delivery models?
