Back to basics

Its time to remove the smell. And not just on council. I’m talking sewerage and land fills. Council need to get their attention back to some core activities.

It might be less glamourous than being a poster-girl for the World cup or Weta’s successes, but its a crucial element in the health and well being of our city.

When I first came to Wellington, I was shocked to learn of the unfiltered discharge into our ocean. Things have improved, but there is still a long way to go.

The land fill at the back of Brooklyn also produces some nasty odours.

Its time council got back to some basics.
