Mount shops looking towards the Mount.
Another query from a local resident.
Do you support the addition of fluoride to the water?
What is your stance on factory & port air pollution?
Do you support high rise and multi story buildings in Mount Maunganui?Do you support building the new sport stadium in the Tauranga CBD?
Do you support establishing connected commuter bike lanes throughout Tauranga and its surrounding areas to reduce car traffic or other commuter traffic options?
Fluoride has been mandated in the Tauranga City water supply by the director general of health in July 2022 (see LGOIMA response). Fluoride is not an option for Tauranga, it is compulsory.
I would like to reduce pollution around the port. However, the port is an essential part of Tauranga infrastructure and it is here to stay. We should be trying to work with the various groups on possible solutions. I know this sounds wishy washy, but there are no easy answers. There are some options that we can explore.
I do not support the Mount North high rise referral by the commissioners. The referral is currently with the ministers. Depending on the ministers decision, the elected members can initiate another plan change.
I do not support the sports stadium on the Domain.
I am a supporter of multi-modal transport, bikes, buses, walking, scooters etc. I would like to see bike paths off the road. Bikes and traffic do not play well together.
I would like to see more jobs, services and facilities in or near the suburbs so that we don’t have to travel as far to work, live and play.
