Dear John
I am a 22 year Kaipara District ratepayer who has had a long proffessional career
in international business , as a High Court appointed statutory manager, and
also a receiver manager. I offer the following solution to the management of the Kaipara District Councils
financial and community crisis. The Commissioners have as a cornerstone of their terms of appointment the task of
developing in good faith community relationships. They have failed to do so.
a. Firstly the Commissioners must come to the Kaipara Community and negotiate
a Memorandum of Understanding.
This memorandum will ring fence the illegally collected rates 2004 to 2013 a value
that I estimate is $24 Million for 36 months. The community will agree to take no action against
the KDC for 36 Months to recover the illegally collected rates. The KDC will
agree to cancel the proposed retrospective Local Bill to validate these illegally
collected rates.
b. Bank Loans
The Banks ie BNZ ANZ Westpac will negotiate a moratorium for 36 months where the
banks will agree to not charge interest on the loans for the moratorium period
and agree to NOT taking any precipative action for 36 months ie agree not to appoint
a receiver or liquidator
c. The Commissioners then take legal action against all who have created this financial
crisis including all mayors, all councillors, all employees to recover the maximum possible
from them
d. The rate income will be used to maximise the capital repayments to the banks.
This is a brief statement to develope a SCHEME OF ARRANGEMENT a financial
procedure used to solve the KDC scenario.
I discussed this with Greg Gent in July 2012. I did not know that Mr Greg Gent
was the Northern Area Director for the BNZ.
Yours Faithfully
