Rates increases
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

Staying home over the break?
The long weekend is the perfect time to make your place safer for an earthquake with these steps:
• Find out where you can turn off your water and gas mains
• Check your chimney for any signs of wear and tear, or damage
• Check your home's foundations are secured
• Move heavy items that are up high to safer, lower down locations.
• Secure tall and heavy furniture and appliances
These simple actions can keep your whānau safer in case of a big shake, so tick them off and make the most of your break.
