  1. Hamilton City Council has been never known for having a significant number of members including leadership who are seemingly well qualified to perform the requirements of the job. In addition, does it appear that we have a significantly qualified Senior Management team with the ability to skillfully support and guide them.
    We can expect anthing out of them when it comes to looking after their own future and any significant decisions with respect to the operation of the city.
