Right from the days when Perc Tucker (ALP) was Mayor of Townsville. There has never been the disgusting, hungry grabs for power which we have witnessed here in Cairns, aided by the likes of Mackenzie. Townsville was not politically fired up to reject a brand new state of the art hospital as Cairns was in 1995/1996. Previous to that when Townsville declared its lower Flinders Street would be a historical precinct, they achieved just that. Here in Cairns at the same time, the squeals of the developers outroared those who wanted to preserve some of Cairns' historical buildings. Thus we would be one of the few cities in the world which does not have a dedicated historical precinct. Lastly we all know what happened with the Entertainment Precinct idea. Townsville just went and achieved its remarkable South Bank Precinct with all its jazz and street musicians without any such hysteria. Mackenzie here in Cairns, fired up the rednecks into a lather of hysteria over the "Ukulele Festival." Then through all of this is the endless dog-chasing-its-tail fiasco of the "dredging the inlet", round and round and round we go, and back again, year after year after year through this State Government, then another State Government, then another, and on and on and on, endlessly on. After all this time, no-body has come up with a solution. If it were Townsville, they would have resolved the problem long before this.<br />Townsville and Cairns are indeed a tale of two cities. One which is forging ahead, obtaining all its wants and needs, while Cairns habitually strangles itself.Alison Allowaynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3182703408922632531.post-37962827510751963822016-08-21T10:09:22.836+10:002016-08-21T10:09:22.836+10:00Hey HBW; AWOL for a month now?

The Mayor, Councillors and business leaders have been working hard to put the city on the map, to lobby for funds and also put forward a sound business case. They have pushed and pushed for the stadium and all that hard work is paying off for the community. How many times have you heard the stadium mentioned publicly and also heard of realistic transparent costings as well? Lots. That is how a united team get the job done. <br /><br />But what about Cairns? A bunch of lazy and incompetent taxpayer leaches is the only way to describe 'our' leaders and government representatives. Fantasies about billion dollar city rail networks, port dredging and other pipe dreams. All Manning has done is rebuilt a shitty old pool (short) and allowed for flammable bike bridges too be built!! And you wonder why the state and federal governments shudder and shiver at the mention of our hillbilly city and the dross that runs it!

It requires a shared vision to deliver strong growth in local jobs, regional economic growth, accessible housing, and a commitment to ensure Townsville is more liveable and sustainable.”<br /><br />The City Deal will build on the Coalition’s significant investment in infrastructure and jobs for Townsville including:<br /><br />$150 million toward the Townsville Eastern Access Rail Corridor<br />More than $900 million in infrastructure projects in the region, including the Townsville Ring Road<br />$75 million to locate Cooperative Research Centre for Developing Northern Australia in Townsville<br />Planning work for Hells Gate Dam<br />Expansion of one of the largest defence bases in Australia, Lavarack Barracks, and<br />Expanded defence facilities to support the regional deployment of Singapore’s defence forces during training exercises.<br />These investments will help the Townsville region realise its immense potential.<br /><br />http://ministers.dpmc.gov.au/taylor/2016/townsville-city-deal-discussions-underwayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3182703408922632531.post-26409409727334332492016-07-30T17:55:46.413+10:002016-07-30T17:55:46.413+10:00another head turning episode like I said some are ...another head turning episode like I said some are more equal than others has anyone dealt with the a.t.o recently? omg, after the airport and pool debacles what awaits us in the cbd ?shanghainoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3182703408922632531.post-88579201609094606252016-07-30T13:08:26.609+10:002016-07-30T13:08:26.609+10:00Nothing will happen to them.
