Rates increases

Sharon from Leamington

If council borrowing is at limit then stop spending our money . Rates increases are too high.
We are paying for projects such as adding speed humps, removing car lanes for bike tracks out of our rates.
If they want to add infrastructure then make developers pay for it.
Council appears to be trying to shut business in town down
