TAURANGA RESIDENTS AND RATEPAYERS GROUP...COME JOIN US
This page is NO WAY CONNECTED TO THE ONE RUN BY MURRAY GUY
It is a page were Rate Payers and Residents can have their say. Your opinion is valid and everyone else thinks theirs is too.
I started this page because I was tired of some of our Councillors claiming FREE SPEECH, and DEMOCRACY, but I know of three Groups that are administered by Current City Councillors. Papamoa Link has Steve Morris as an Admin. Mount Ratepayers site has Dawn Kiddie and Andrew Hollis and the other Tauranga Ratepayers site has ex Councillor Murray Guy. I believe that these people have a conflict of Interest in being admin of these sites, because if you disagree with them, you are blocked. You will not be blocked from this site, unless you personally abuse other contributors. We do not have agree on everything, but we too have the right to free speech.
It is my fervent wish that Tauranga can go forward, without all the infighting within Council.
Later on we may form a group, if you wish to meet face to face. Let's see how it runs

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
