Hamilton City Council delays signing funding deed for Waikato Regional Theatre


A funding deed between the council and the trust was expected to be approved on Thursday but, following questions from Cr Ewan Wilson, elected members instead opted to have the document amended.
The funding deed sets out conditions to be satisfied before the council commits funds to the theatre build.

Hamilton City Councillor Ewan Wilson wants to ensure ratepayer funds in the theatre are safeguarded (file photo).
However, Wilson noted the deed only refers to the $18.65m of council funds yet to be committed to the project.
“In light of the fact that the trust funding deed is only in reference to the balance of some $18.650m, do we assume that the council has lost all recourse on the $6.3m we’ve already spent?” Wilson asked council staff.
