QW: Roncon should go now

David, Armidale

I know it wasn’t in your paper but I don’t think the Express would run this letter if I sent it: but how off the charts delusional was that puff piece about Armidale Regional Council GM James Roncon? The relationship between town and council is as toxic as ever, staff seem to be even more unhappy and fearful than ever, and Roncon is claiming that’s he’s just awesome. I thought he quit? There were plenty of ego-dripping stories that he was leaving… why is he still here? He should go ASAP. And if he won’t, then the elected councillors should make him go as he is obviously more committed to his own ego than to Armidale, not keep renewing his contract.

  1. Agreed. What we need is simple affordable advances. Dam walls raised at Malpas and Guyra water supply dams, two carriages on the railway line connecting Armidale and Glen Innes. Instead we get grandiose and unaffordable plans that will saddle the ratepayers with unbearable debt , like a ridiculous water plan that will have ratepayers footing the bill for industrial water and a rail trail bicycle path that will cost us a fortune for no transport benefit.
