The story on our Facebook page headed “Hastings: Closing Splash Planet contributes to $7.2m council deficit” drew these comments:

Jennifer Taylor What did the council expect, keeping it closed in the summer that we have just had. Not a good business move at all, considering all the other swimming pools were open. Leave the rate payers out of this mistake.

Sharee Curtin I don’t know why they don’t have the mini golf open all year round

Anthea Francis Better not be an excuse to sell off council flats to re coup some $$$

Dwayne Halstead Wait and see how much they have spent on the municipal theatre though

James Dean And the council want to buy the A&P Showgrounds. This will also end up as a disaster for rate payers . This should not be allowed to go ahead !

Kura James They should have opened then. People wanted to go.
