Buy-out of private properties affected by slips Debate

Community Wellbeing - Equality & Inclusion

Option 4

The residents supporting Option 4 express concerns about the fairness of the buy-out support offer, particularly highlighting the need for further investigation into how it affects those with insurance and those living in slip-prone areas. They argue that Nelson has been overlooked compared to other regions, suggesting a disparity in treatment by Central Government and advocating for stronger local representation to ensure equitable support. Overall, there is a call for more tailored and realistic negotiations with Central Government to address specific local needs and ensure fair compensation for all affected property owners.
