Community Outlook: 23-11-22
Having previously been somewhat frustrated with the lack of information passing from the Tuatapere Te Waewae Community Board out to the community I am hoping to attend future Community Board meetings and provide a summary of items discussed to the community. At times I may include some opinion pieces but I will clearly identify these. If anyone in the community has questions related to these summaries or opinions, I’m happy to attempt to answer them or raise them with the community board on your behalf – please email questions/requests to info@onnaturesedge.co.nz. Summaries will also be published in the Western Wanderer when timing allows. Myles.
Below is the summary of the Inaugural Meeting.
