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?
Do you have any comments about 231 Stuart Street?
I don't have a strong opinion about this.
Should we charge an entry fee of $20 (incl. GST) for international visitors aged 16 and over, at Toitū and Dunedin Public Art Gallery?
Yes, introduce an entry fee of $20 (incl. GST) (this is our preferred option)
Do you have any comments about the entry fee for international visitors?
I'm in favour of this, but with a reservation. There is a danger that this could be the thin end of the wedge, making it easier for some future Council to decide to charge fees to locals as well. It would be very sad to see these wonderful public institutions become yet more profit-making enterprises inaccessible to poorer Kiwis.
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?
The CCO model is a type of privatisation, and privatisation benefits nobody but shareholders. Using a CCO is likely to make water delivery more difficult and complicated, and more expensive in the long term. Council is doing a perfectly fine job of delivering water, so let's not screw that up.
Do you have any other feedback related to the proposed water services delivery models?
