The Dunedin City Council is going to spend $2.5 million to redevelop the Civic Centre to keep the public away from members of the public. This is after "near misses" with unhappy ratepayers. There is growing anger at the Council from the community, over issues including the cost of the new Stadium, big rates increases, and the parking debacle.
The irony is that this is yet another example of extravagance, and will only worsen the ill-feeling towards the Council.
The ODT article about this is here.
