ANALYSIS:
Wellington City Council is a place where no one wants to be right now, with Mayor Andy Foster calling the culture sub-optimal .
Councillor Nicola Young was not so diplomatic in her characterisation of the situation, saying being on council has become intolerable and she s just trying to keep out of the splatter zone .
The council is a house that s on fire and Foster undoubtedly will be hoping his announcement of an independent review today will douse the flames.
Andy Foster says he kept some councillors in the dark over his plans to call for an independent review because he was worried one of them would steal his thunder.
