It's now your turn..
Hi all. By now you would have received a letter from HCC showing your new rates rises should the budget go ahead and be accepted in June.
I have been opposed to this budget when I saw what was happening back in March 2017. I work for my people and my city, this budget does not.
I was the only elected member who voted against the consultation document. It doesn't tell you the whole picture and that's not OK with me. It paints a picture of doom and gloom that is simply not true. But now I ask you to please, please put in a public submission so YOU can tell Council what you think. Submissions can be done online or, you can simply send an email, you can even pick a paper copy up from any library. Don't sit back in silence, I haven't been silent, so use this opportunity. I know this is public office and public money, but you need to remind Council of that fact. Let your thoughts be known. Find me on Facebook for more info and daily updates on the proposed budget. Submissions are open till 30th April, and please pass this message on, it's critical Council hears from now😊

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
