I was shocked to see your committee choose to get rid of a real important part of new plymouths history .

This history needs to be preserved so we understand european settlers they were brave and determined to
help make a new country.

Why is it ok to loose this history .

These seats are very special .

It would be a delight to have seen these seats to a growing tourist market.

I trace my family back to the timandra and I very dissapointed that a group of people can make this decision.

A big lack of foresight here.

Cheers Andrea.
