Another good Sledge from Farrar

by Whaleoil on November 26, 2012

Our pinko mate doesn’t like the idea of moving Canterbury University to revitalise the rooted CBD. He doesn’t say it outright, he just sledges.

Having the university more central isn’t a bad idea by itself, but money doesn’t grow on trees (except for the Greens). If Bob Parker really thinks it is essential, than maybe he can identify what projects he would can to pay for it.

    We in the St Church might make a profit on this one.

    Move the Uni, free up huge piece of prime land. Make billions. Can sell the existing buildings, make billions. Don’t need to build light rail from city to uni any more. Make billions.

    Plus.

    Confine all the uni loonies to the central city, and they can have their disgusting hovels there and totter home from the bars at 2am vomiting and littering only on city pavements. Has to be a gain in street cleaning and property values, thus taxes go up.

    Bob’s idea of moving the uni is simply not affordable, desirable, functional, or do-able. Otherwise it is fine!
    His light rail idea is in the same category. Currently a ride costs $14 on the existing light rail loop and yet the tram company struggles to pay its costs. $14 to uni and $14 home – students would welcome that – Yeah. Right!
