Mayor made accommodation offers last week – condemns MP’s stunt
Dunedin (Friday, 3
June 2016) – Mayor Dave Cull arranged two offers of
accommodation for Tina Conway last week when she approached
his office but she declined to pursue either of
them.
Tina’s house became uninhabitable after a bank in front of her house in Green Island collapsed during last year’s June flood. She had been staying in accommodation paid for by her insurance company, while awaiting a decision on her red stickered house. She approached Mayor Cull and his office offered a Council owned flat and a meeting with a social service agency to accommodate her in one of its houses. Ms Conway declined to meet with either of them.
After making those offers the Mayor’s office tried a number of channels to get hold of Tina but it wasn’t until she appeared in the paper that it knew her current circumstances.
