Wake Up Auckland - The Stadium Debacle
Re: The Stadium Debacle,.
We the rate-paying citizens of
Auckland wish to make it clear to the Auckland City Council,
the ARC and Central Government, that any loans made
available to the Rugby Union for
the construction of
stands is by way of a loan and will be looked on as an
investment.
We the people of Auckland expect a return
on that investments. Our collective rates are not to be used
as a slush fund for corporate welfare.
If we are to
invest in Eden Park we see ourselves (the citizens of
Auckland) as investors and stakeholders in a business and
like the airport shares we expect a healthy return on this
investment, other wise why spend our collective capital in
that way.
Regards
Lisa Prager
Spokesperson for
Wake Up Auckland
