  <title>District councillor criticised for attending meetings online.</title>
  <description>
    <![CDATA[A Tasman District councillor has raised a few eyebrows for attending most meetings over Zoom or Teams despite living minutes away from the council buildings. According to figures obtained by the Nelson Mail, in the last triennium, Mark Greening attended three meetings in person and 73 meetings online. We asked Mr Greening to come on the show.. he declined saying he's busy and struggles to see why it's a big deal, adding remote access provides good flexibility. Tasman District Mayor Tim King spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
