A start with a couple of the council candidates on Raglan talking to Raglan this week

We've got 16 candidates to elect to 10 positions and 'meet the candidates' at 2.30pm on Sunday 14 September. So we need to decide which 10 we want, or which 6 we don't want. Also a bit of an environment centre update and an introduction to the balances shown in https://waikato.civicclerk.com.au/web/UserControls/pdf/web/DocPDFWrapper.aspx?p=1&aoid=585&token=b6ac83ea-1acf-4922-93a6-4a36cefb49ac, such as the $112,697 in the Wainui Farm Reserve account. Good to see a Regional Council survey showing that 87% think “A healthy environment is necessary for a healthy economy”, but only 29% think "The benefits of maximising agricultural productivity outweigh the costs of harming waterways” - https://core.opentext.eu/pdfjs/web/viewer.html?shortLink=b8938ecafd0508ffa2069c4267d31e2ab8e7dee81c2da810.
