DEAR News Of The Area,
I AM watching in amazement at what the council is wasting money on now.
They have decided that the perfectly good hot mix tar road in front of the council chambers needs to be resurfaced, while there are sections of roads within 100 metres of that road that have holes, dips and sink areas that have been like it for years.
It was only a month or so ago that they cut out sections of the road and filled and resealed them.
Why can’t the council prioritise the repairs of roads instead of wasting our money on roads that are perfectly fine?
They can’t even give us footpaths, or repair the ones we already have.
I just don’t know where the council has their priorities these days.
A very disappointed ratepayer,
Martin MOUNTFORD,
Macksville.
