"We are actually quite sceptical having another war room in the municipality, you found we had functional waste management system we would not need to have a war room," said Waldhausen.
"We need to actually ensure that a proper waste management is implemented by the municipality, and you find that with our experience with all the residents engaging with them the war rooms they are dysfunctional."
