Central Leader

No responsibi­lity

-

Absolutely no-one seems to take responsibi­lity with this council we have.

People parking their vehicles in the disabled parking areas outside Onehunga War Memorial Pools has been going on for years.

Your newspaper in the past will be aware of members from the complex getting in touch with you also.

As for the council, a number of times previous staff and management from the complex were told by the council that they were to phone them with regards to illegal parkers and they would send a warden around to ticket and tow the vehicle.

Of course this never happened. And years later we are told that the council has no jurisdicti­on in this area?

Are we to believe that the flooding in this area because of all the rubbish filling the gutters from the trees and litter is the responsibi­lity of the residents? Central Leader, December 26.

If it is, then someone should be telling the residents in this street because they sure as heck are not aware of this.

The property closest to the complex itself often has flooded water over their entrance way when we have heavy rain.

This guy Simon Randall (Maungakiek­ie-Tamaki Local Board chairman) I am sure is a name I remember back five years or so ago when members and staff at the complex had meetings with the local councillor for the area.

He informs me that he has never been aware of this problem and nor has the board.
