Hamilton rates.

Brian from Pukete

I have just been reading why our rates are going through the roof once again,and most of it is due to this Peacocks subdivision that the Mayor had such a large interest in.
It is going to cost Hamilton $ 329 MILLION for the addition of 4000 homes.
That is an additional $6580 per household that we will have to pay,going on the 2013 census that there were approx 50,000 houses in Hamilton at $3000 per household.
This is just PART of the additions that they have factored in that we dont need.
12 million for a train station at Rotokauri so about 200 people can train to Auckland.
20 million for a community HUB at Rototuna, what the hell are they going to build,another Claudlands edifice.?
27 million for Hamilton gardens developent,didnt see that one in the budget I was OK at $10 a year but where did that come from.
52 Million for biking projects...are you crazy!
What has happened to sort out what NEEDS to be done for ESSENTIAL works ,pay off debt, THEN look at fluffy luxuries..

Poll: Do you use the district nursing service?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The health system has been accused of breaking the law amid sky-rocketing demand for community-based nurses in Waikato.

This comes as the supply of district nurses lags behind referral increases of more than 100%, leading to staff burn out and an “unprecedented” service failure.

Do you use the district nursing service? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
