Concerned residents in Whangarei have combined to represent
community concerns about the Whangarei District and Northland Regional
councils. Concerned Residents Of Whangarei (CROW) founder Ian Melrose, says
council spending and rating is the first issue they will be addressing.
"The excessive rate increases from both councils are just not acceptable, and we are going to voice the concerns that many are expressing privately”.
The group’s inaugural public meeting will be held on Saturday, the 21st of June, 10.30am at the Old Library in Rust Ave, Whangarei. Everyone is welcome.
