lots of people on the "efficiency" side. Like Trader. Who view the constant bum covering and double/triple checking everything as a somewhat redundant process.Booney wrote:morell wrote:All over a golf membership, an apple watch and some flowers.

Who wants councils to be "less risk adverse"?

Agree.stan wrote:At the end of the day the rate payers will judge you on performance. If the parks and community centres are well looked after and services such as waste collection for example is sorted the most people arent going to give a crap about council politics.
To me and from conversations with plenty of people, the general consensus is that your average joe is over the political squabbles. Just wants the job to get done without having massive rate hikes.

Onkaparinga are an industry leading Council and are often at the top on awards nights.
Again it comes back to perception of value.
I've right now got two e-mails on top of each other. One resident has said I'm the best thing since sliced bread and a wonderful asset to Council. The one below it is borderline abusive. They're addressing the same issue.

I disagree. You can give the public everything. They don't actually care about what's going on around them, the value these parks add or anything like that. All they care about is that they're paying money. They don't care what they're paying for. Just that they're paying for it.

Yes, gas determines price at any point in time, but considering we once imported 30% of electricity demand, this is a significant milestone.stan wrote:Yes we are a Net exporter but we lack one more decent generation source.Q. wrote:ICYMI, South Australia became a net electricity exporter for first time in the last 3 months.

True, but as I said we are lacking that one generation source at the moment. Im not saying coal is or was the answer. As I know the details of the Northern plant closure but we need something.Q. wrote:Yes, gas determines price at any point in time, but considering we once imported 30% of electricity demand, this is a significant milestone.stan wrote:Yes we are a Net exporter but we lack one more decent generation source.Q. wrote:ICYMI, South Australia became a net electricity exporter for first time in the last 3 months.

Also, wind generation only a fraction of RE.
