Christchurch rates will go up by 54 per cent over the next 10 years, prompting one city councillor to liken his colleagues to "drunken sailors at a spending orgy".
Five councillors – James Gough, Sam MacDonald, Aaron Keown, Phil Mauger and Catherine Chu – voted against the long-term plan (LTP), and the rates increase saying they believed the council did not go anywhere near far enough to cut its costs.
However, other councillors and mayor Lianne Dalziel said they believed the council had struck the right balance.
What do you think? Let us know below.

We're looking into how some common claims about NZ stack up and would be interested in your thoughts on whether New Regent Street in Christchurch deserves its title of 'NZ's most beautiful street'. Do you think it is the best-looking street in the country? Or is there another street you think is more beautiful? Please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you do not want it included in an article. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts.

The charge was one of many points discussed by the Christchurch City Council on Monday as it ratified and voted on final amendments to the city's 10-year budget, known formally as the long-term plan.
The council also decided not to decommission Wharenui Pool (though funding past 2022 remains unclear), and voted to give the Arts Centre a $5.5 million grant, keep the Riccarton bus lounge open, and retain the mobile library for now.
Although the council intended to start the excess water use charge next month, Cr Sara Templeton said no fines would be dished out the first year, to allow people to get used to the change.
Read more, including who will be affected by the new charge, here.

Taco Bell superfan Jessa Arcayera, 18, waited 90 minutes in line to get her hands on her favourite Taco Bell order: a beefy cheese burrito, crunchy taco wrap, cinnamon twists, fries and a Coke.
She was one of nearly 100 eager customers who donned taco shell hats and T-shirts outside the Taco Bell Eastgate store in Linwood, Christchurch – the South Island’s first – as they waited for the big purple bell to be rung and ribbon to be cut.
Would you queue to be first to order at the South Island's first Taco Bell?

Does the way you eat make you feel depressed or low? Has life stopped feeling good and lost its meaning? Don’t know how to stop stress eating? Does your eating cause you to feel listless or numbed out? Does your relationship with food make you feel isolated from family, friends and loved ones? Find out how AEA members have used the Twelve Step programme to overcome the low feelings associated with addictive eating and go on to live joyful, positive lives.
These are the stories of how some of our members came to find a solution to their food related depression in Addictive Eaters Anonymous. This way of life is available to you, too. We suggest you read these stories of eating disorder recovery with an open mind. Focus on the similarities, rather than the differences. Whatever your problem with food, AEA can help.

Passengers rattled along the rails to Saturday shopping and summer picnics on the beach.
This changed in October, 1952. Out went trams, in came buses.
Christchurch mayor Robert Macfarlane drove the last rumbling old tram, festooned with banners and bunting. It towed a double-decker trailer, from the top of which the Caledonian Pipe Band played a lament.
In its wake came three of the Christchurch Transport Board's new AEC diesel buses. The band later piped the buses into New Brighton.
