Could take years to shut down polluting piggery - council
In the photo on RNZ there are two overflowing tanks with a bank behind them. You can spot the tanks on Google Maps, next to the middle shed:
How the hell is it that the RMA has, by all accounts, been the largest single drag on construction in this country and is one of (the many) causes of the housing crisis, yet it can't even prevent literal shit being dumped in our rivers "for years"?
I despair for this country. We're fucked. I'd say bring on the election but whoever gets in, it'll be more of the same.
Another quality rant!
Everyone says they want RMA reform, but the reason why it hasn't happened (even though it's been on the agenda for at least a decade) is that everyone has very different ideas about what that reform should be.
Some want it to make it easier for construction, others want better environmental protection. For the most part, these are diametrically opposed.
