A sign of the times – ‘debt going through the roof’

Kāpiti personality Dale Evans says Council’s debt is out of control and is going through the roof.

“I copped some criticism from councillors when I put a sign on my billboard a couple of weeks back stating the gay times are over and showing Kāpiti Council’s debt at $75million. In all their criticism of me not one single time did any of them refer to the main part of the sign – that is the $75million debt,” said Mr Evans.

“Well this week the sign is upgraded to show the current level of debt which is now over $100million. This is huge so I guess they will probably ignore that as well. The good news is the public aren’t ignoring it and I have had overwhelming feedback endorsing my attempts to show how badly this council is performing.”

Mr Evans said the hard decisions have not been made and it is time the Mayor and Council resigned.

“Democracy is dieing in Kāpiti. With 8000 petitioners over the water meters being completely ignored the council has showed their contempt for the people who elected them. It is time for them to go,” said Mr Evans.
