Review would build trust
Yet again a councillor's request for an independent review of Rotorua Lakes Council's governance has been denied (News, August 26).
I believe an independent review would either vindicate council or, alternatively, offer a route and guidance out of an increasingly bleak and unaffordable future for Rotorua.
It would be the first step towards rebuilding trust and confidence in the council and help it meet community expectations.
What is there to hide?
