Inquiry under way

The Matamata Public Relations Association was so impressed with the response to the Matamata Chronicle article on the suggestion of bringing the cycleway from Te Aroha to Matamata it has approved a plan to further investigate the proposal.

Association manager Sue Whiting said the organisation had one very clear objective and that was concerned development would increase their rates.

‘‘We would like to investigate ways of funding the project rather than just relying on the council,’’ she said.

The association plans to set up a working group to discuss the project. Those interested in being part of the group should contact sue@matamatanz.co.nz
