The council’s people and performance committee made a recommendation to keep Carran in the job. Cr Richard Lyon was supportive of retaining Carran, moving that the recommendation be accepted. “The recommendation has been thoroughly researched and democratically approached.” Lyon said Carran had been a strength in many ways and difficult decisions had been made. “I know there have been all sorts of undercurrents, but the reality is - it’s for our organisation to grow and grow and structured for the future. Naturally we can’t please everybody but that’s life.”

Timaru District Council mayor Nigel Bowen, pictured with Carran, was absent from the meeting but later gave his endorsement.
Piddington called for an explanation from Mackey for what he called the council ending up “in a mess” as it missed its statutory June 30 deadline for the adoption of the plan. Mackey said when they looked at the details in a final analysis, corporate activities as a group of activities was not in the draft. This had to be amended. Also, a cut in funding from Waka Kotaki NZ Transport Agency and the flood at the end of May complicated matters. A council staff report said addressing Audit NZ’s concerns had required considerable work restating each group of activities’ Funding Impact Statement (FIS) to reflect 90 per cent capital delivery.
Cr Stu Piddington asked why this request had happened so late in proceedings. Carran said he was unsure, as it had worked closely with Audit NZ on both the consultation document and the draft LTP. Special projects manager Ashley Harper said although the council’s LTP budgeted for 100 per cent of all projects being completed on time, it had a target of completing 90 per cent of its work. “This is the first time we did the 90 per cent rather than 100 per cent. Our neighbours don t do this,” Harper said, Carran explained this was an approach that acknowledged there would likely be delays to certain projects, some of which would be out of the council’s control.
