The sheet in the Chronicle was preceded by another draft, which now forms the basis of a much more comprehensive Google document at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ifnD2LUoZ_ZST8nClEBzAAij5D0PiRc5-wOTvvAULPg/edit. Please look at it and, if possible, add more information to it, so that we can all make informed decisions about the future of council spending in Raglan.
Another informal group has formed to build for the national demonstrations against the Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement on Sat 8 November – 10am Bow St, 1pm Garden Place. They plan to meet at 7pm in the Town Hall Supper Room on Mondays 13, 20, 27 October and 3 November. Their Facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/events/835063413190548/?ref=br_tf.
There are 2 ‘interest free’ banking groups in Whaingaroa at present. It’d be helpful to know who else is interested in reducing what is probably a $12m a year flow of money from Whaingaroa in interest payments, as a third group might be set up. Are you?
Hope to see you at those meetings.
Thanks
John.
