Waihi residents let loose on councillors in a fiery meeting about stormwater management yesterday. It follows severe flooding last month which forced about 50 people, many of whom were pensioners from their homes. One local told councillors they were lucky no one had died under their watch. Keith Hay is the chair of the Waihi Residents and Ratepayers Association, and he spoke to Corin Dann.
