A message we’ve received is below. In addition to the reason he gives, we suspect the result of the mayoral election is another factor.
Pete G from Hot Topic Coast Access Radio. Due to impending much higher fuel costs in the New Year I have closed my weekly radio show at Coast Access. I naturally retain a strong interest in the Kapiti Coast and the many contacts that I made in 5 1/2 years. I am an ardent follower of Waikanae Watch and will stay in the loop.
Thanks for the write up Geoffrey. Yes pending hikes in fuel costs in the New Year are the major factor in closing Hot Topic. I would like to point out that changes in the KCDC line up were not a factor in this decision.
Good luck in dealings with Holborow. You clearly haven’t been on the receiving end of her venomous attacks like we and other media people in Kapiti have.
