Let’s make sure we do not make a huge, smelly, costly mistake spraying the river grass.
How about we make sure it is the right thing to do for the environment and for the finances of this district? And if it is sprayed, do we know how long it will be dying, rotting and smelling?
My dog is walked around the mid-city river walk twice daily and we would hate to see the wading birds, pukeko, even the sea gulls’ habitat disappear.
We all need to be made aware of the issues and money involved in this process before the spraying starts. Mr Wells brought up many points in his column on Saturday. Thank you Sir.
