City of Nedlands Mayor launches extraordinary broadside after four councillors resign- ABC

Edit: (some background on the Childrens Hospice)

WA government takes control of land next to children's hospice to allow development of 'a beautiful oasis' (abc)

In short: The City of Nedlands opposed plans to build a parkland on an A-class reserve near the new $34 million children's hospice in Swanbourne, which is due to open later this year.

The Lands Minister John Carey has moved to take Allen Park out of the hands of the council, saying it has not maintained the space in "any meaningful way".

What's next?
The move to excise control of the land will be put to state parliament in the middle of this month.

"If anyone accuses me of bad behaviour or defamation I'll sue them, because I have been nothing but a good mayor," she said.

Mr Dodson said he could no longer serve in an environment he claimed was "consistently toxic".

I'm like, if this article is even a slight glimpse into the council under her it makes complete sense why so many left

  • If you have a spare 7 minutes listen to the interview, the Mayor's catchphrases just go on and on, in parts she almost speaks in pure catchphrase.

    I can't stop laughing at the bit where she starts banging on about a Lee Kwon Yew cities prize they're in the draw for. Like, well done i guess, wanna address the dumpster fire in the carpark now?
