A former Heart of the City board member says the organisation's lost its focus.
Six of the Auckland city-centre business association's seven voting members have quit after months of turmoil which saw its chief executive temporarily stood down.
Its board says the organisation isn't compliant with its own constitution and recommends Auckland Council withhold funding and consider an audit.
Murray Crane told Mike Hosking Heart of the City's no longer effective.
He believes it's become very bureaucratic and members are dealing with a lot of things they shouldn't have to.
Crane says it comes at a stressful time for Auckland businesses, and if times were good and businesses were humming, the organisation would work really well.
