1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,440
Speaker 1: Wellington City Council's planned to sell report shares that's been

2
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 1: voted down. They were going to do it now they're not.

3
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: The Council of Tony rendalls with us on this Tony morning,

4
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 1: good morning, your journey to the bote. You're a bit

5
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:10,239
Speaker 1: here and there, won't you?

6
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 2: Well? I was one of the counselors that initially supported

7
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 2: selling the shares, but we already have two hundred seventy

8
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 2: two million dollars of borroing capability and we only agree

9
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 2: to support the shares if they kept this emergency funding.

10
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 2: But in fact, when we saw that the long term

11
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 2: plan was going to spend this money essentially selling shares

12
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 2: to fund projects, we withdrew our support and signed the

13
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 2: notice of motion.

14
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: How much bad will ill will is there now? As

15
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 1: a result of this As an exercise within the council.

16
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 2: This is This has been a very rough exercise for everybody.

17
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 2: And yeah, there's there's relationships between broken and some things

18
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 2: have been said that are going to be difficult to unsay,

19
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 2: but we've made a democratic decision in the in the

20
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: council has to move on.

21
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: Does it feel as around the table as dysfunctional as

22
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 1: it looks from out here.

23
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 2: Sometimes it does, especially like at the meeting we had yesterday,

24
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 2: but a lot of time it doesn't. And the Council

25
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 2: on other areas is actually working pretty well together, especially

26
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 2: on the big issue, which is the water.

27
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 1: Well, that's encourage you. What about this Bordeaux bakery Thorndon Key?

28
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 1: What was the company that was moving yesterday? Quanovic? They're

29
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: out as well? I mean, and that looks like a

30
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: shambles as well. That does the council get this or not? Really?

31
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: The council has still got to change track. We've got

32
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,759
Speaker 2: all councilor's got a very angry letter from the owner

33
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 2: and he said that one of his closing thoughts was

34
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: that as Wellington is a city built on the hard

35
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 2: work of its people and its businesses, you as a

36
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 2: council should service that reality, not worth against it.

37
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: A very good line.

38
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I've got to say too, I mean, people

39
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 2: who know Wellington I have to say Wellington is in

40
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 2: deep trouble if an iconic, if or somewhat expensive French

41
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 2: bakery cannot survive in the CBD.

42
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: Couldn't agree more. Yeah, good on your Tony, go well

45
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: Kiev Haven follow Kunovic. They're out. They just cannot do business.

46
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 1: Reconstruction of the roads continued, The cones doubled. Parking disappeared.

47
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 1: We had clients coming and saying they can't get a

48
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 1: car park. People have others waiting in their cars while

49
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: they come in trades. People can't get a park. The

50
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: whole thing's just a cluster. Well that's Wellington for you.
