How are we doing? Is there anything you would like to tell us?
I do not like the direction you are steering this city to. You don’t want cars so you are making it as difficult as possible for citizens to park let alone actually get a park. Not everyone is able to negotiate several, if not more, blocks to get into the Main Street. Eg: I’m buying several pillows from Farmers, then I buy some clothes further up the road , then I buy some homewares from Acquisitions. You expect me to carry all these things around town. My car is parked 5 blocks away by the railway station, maybe if I’m lucky. The buses are not built for purpose. Have you noted there is not a bus in Dunedin without scrape marks on it from trying to negotiate the intersections. Shuttles would be a slight improvement. Don’t get me started on the cycleways!! Have you at least done a time and motion study on the use of bikes here?? Get real DCC!! I live in Port Chalmers. What have you done to assist us during the cruise ship season ? Nothing! We were lucky to get a set of new toilets!! The bus situation has not been looked at and you’ve had 6MONTHS to fix it!! The dog park??? We must be the only area not to have one. Do you guys go to your meetings just to enjoy a coffee and your lunch ??!! Please please listen to the people.

What other ideas should we be thinking about to include in future plans for our city?
We don’t need new ideas, geez , we need to deal with the plans you have already and get them right before you move on.
