town council and at times from the press Its just unfortunate that we cannot get a better working relationship with council Mr Gibbard said at last weeks meeting The things that we do successfully are done more or less despite our council and thats really a shame He complained that council wont permit citizen input when an issue is being discussed or a plan formulated Rather the CCA has to and react to matters made public by council Antagonism its difficult to say whether we antagonism or whether it is caused by a lack of choice in the way we have to operate Mr Gibbard said Later he added
