    Cr Cassidy says that the approach to consultation is terrible. They seem to be requiring the local councillor to go and do all the consultation and design themselves first and then bring that to the committee, if the ward is held by an opposition or minor party/independent councillor. But if it’s an LNP ward, they use Council resources to produce a design and perform consultation, he says.

      Cr Murphy basically confirms that what Cr Cassidy said here is completely true. If Labor proposes a solution, he says, they won’t provide it resources.

        He claims that former councillor Sriranganathan started the consultation process for the bikeway on Dornoch Terrace & Gladstone Rd, but that he turned against it because former state MP Jackie Trad spoke up against it.

        I don’t know about Ms Trad’s involvement, but you can read Mr Sriranganathan’s opinion on it on his website. Suffice to say, Cr Murphy’s oversimplification does not provide a very accurate representation of his views.
