This relates to Mr Maxwell’s desire to close the Waikanae Recycling facility on 1 August (see yesterday’s post).
When our editorial group was forwarded this, as arrogant as we know Mr Maxwell to be, we could scarcely believe it. He simply can not call the 5 Councillors opposed to what he wants “freeloaders.” This is well beyond what is acceptable of a Council Chief Executive. In our view this is a sackable offence and he should be dismissed forthwith.
Mr Maxwell was appointed in 2017 to heed what the elected governors decide, not to bully and abuse them.
Watch this space.
Sadly to some – ‘ Ethics is a place outside London’.
Personally I think Mr Maxwell is behaving in a most offensive manner. In my view he has spoken disrespectfully and should understand that Councillors are elected figures and represent the people of this community. Who exactly is he implying the freeloaders are?
He is referring to Crs Handford, Randall, Elliot and Prvanov
What I was getting at was that the Councillors are acting on my behalf, as a voter and rate payer. If he considers them freeloaders he seems to be tarring those that hold the same view with the same brush.
