Annabel Turley: Christchurch Business Association Chair on the Arts Centre's food truck plans
The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Tuesdays
Christchurch's Business Association is calling out the food truck plans of the city's Arts Centre. The centre's applied for licences for 33 trucks to operate 12 hours a day, seven days a week. But the Christchurch Business Association believes this is unfair, with chair Annabel Turley saying city businesses are subsidising the Arts Centre. She told Heather du Plessis-Allan that the centre is getting $5.5 million over the next decade, and the rate differential for commercial compared to residential is a lot higher. Turley says food trucks would also cheapen the site. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
