Balancing Act: Gary Kelliher on Otago's Land, Water, and Governance Challenges

Councillor Gary  Kelliher joins us from Central Otago, wearing the hats of both farmer and business owner, to shed light on the pressing issues surrounding the Land and Water Regional Plan. Gary weighs the impact on local communities against the intent to protect our vital waterways. Gary's dual perspectives bring a rare depth to the discussion on council dynamics, governance, and the balancing act required to sustain both agriculture and the environment. We navigate the thorny path of aligning local aspirations with central mandates,
