Huntly, we have a problem...

[Wingnut]

Oh yes then there is the $10,000 we (the sport) didn't get, because they couldn't afford it yet he gets a sum believed to be 10 times that amount for himself and they employed a new staff member in the office and also bought a carpark this year!!.

You sure he doesn't work for the local council - so many similarities

[ajturbo]

Just so I'm clear, what exactly IS this mysterious "fee" that MNZ takes ?

err.... do you have a license from them?... that is what i was talking about...

[Grey Beard]

I was on MNZ's site today and I see Paul Pavletich has announced he has given the Road Race Media job to Andy McGechan.

Wasn't that the job Jim Tuckerman did under Paul Stewart?

Also I thought the media fell under the Commissioners role.

Does this mean PP has taken on the role of Road Race Commissioner or is it another example of the CEO stepping beyond his role.

Also did anyone see the job advertised?

I dont know about the rest of it, but in all fairness Andy is a reasonably top bloke.

Indeed, but as long as he is not bullied and will stand up and be counted when called upon. Paul P does not get on with JT and vice versa. JT is a fiery devil but hes not afraid to stand up. JT for MNZ President!

Has anyone else got any more new/relivent news to ad to this thread?

Check out derisory comments about this forum on MNZ newsletter. Certainly in keeping with an autocratic mentality.

Fuck, you have to buy a carpark in Huntly ? (my home town if I had to own up to having one ....)

I was out of order here. That is one of the problems with web forums posting without knowing the FULL STORY.

The car park quote I was commenting on was at best ill informed and at worst deliberately misleading. Having read in the annual report the reason land was purchased makes good sense to me - the fact that it is CURRENTLY being used as a car park is not really relevant.

Well many of us can't read the annual report because we're obviously not important enough to have it posted to us. Is it published somewhere on the world's must unusable website?

My understanding is that there is a complicated formula involving attractiveness and intelligence, with the handsome brainy fullas getting the report. I will pop mine in the post for you 2.

Come to mention it youre correct,that website really sucks. Yet another thing MNZ cant get right in spite of 300k per year on salaries.

I believe in forward planning BUT
I have heard that it may be used as a helipad for when the CEO's vehicle needs replacing. If so hopefully they will sign write it(unlike the current vehicle) so members can recognise it and see where our funds are being used.
If it was tarsealed we could use it for bucket racing, the 10k we didn't get for roadracing went a long way towards paying for it. I believe there wasn't even a vote at Board level for this purchase.

The problem appears to be that we had an undertaking at the last AGM from a Board Member AND the President that any property related decisions would be floated past the Membership before any actions were taken

Like you, I think it probably WAS a good long-term strategic decision to buy it, and I understand we bought it at a pretty good price .......
Just that I expected to have been kept in the loop, as per the commitment we were given in Nelson.
