A rising tide of abuse, escalating costs and the clash between central and local government - Marika Hill looks back at local politics in 2024.
The article from RNZ discusses the tumultuous year in New Zealand's local politics, highlighting several key issues. It covers the significant division and abuse faced by local politicians, exemplified by the experiences of figures like Dunedin Mayor Jules Radich, who faced a no-confidence vote, and Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown, who encountered public and media scrutiny over his handling of crises like the Auckland floods. The piece also touches on the financial strain on local councils, with rising costs and the need for rate increases, as seen in Wellington where a 12.3% rates rise was proposed. Furthermore, it notes the broader political environment, including the impact of national politics on local governance, with examples like the Three Waters reform and the general election influencing local decisions and public sentiment. The year was marked by a mix of personal attacks, financial challenges, and the ongoing struggle to balance community needs with fiscal responsibility.
