RDRR’s Policies:

  • Enforce our District Plan which limits motel stays to 28 days;
  • Restore Rotorua’s reputation as a tourist destination;
  • Keep reserves from being developed into housing;
  • Keep the Springfield Golf Course by offering a new long-term lease;
  • Focus on essential services and maintenance;
  • Minimise rates rises by reviewing everything and cutting costs;
  • Convert the unused “cycle way” back into parking spaces in the CBD;
  • Eliminate or at least minimise secret meetings from which the media and public are excluded;
  • Ensure decisions are made only by those elected to do so and in public meetings; and
  • Ensure democratic election arrangements for future elections.
