What are you thinking about the rates rise talk at the council?
Hamilton City Council’s proposed rate hikes will “crush a lot of whānau” and placing the blame on water costs is a “red herring”, according to Hamilton West MP Tama Potaka.
The Waikato Times spoke to various politicians in the wake of revealing that the proposed 25.5% rate rise could be followed by yearly increases of 14.1% - a proposal were mooted at a council meeting on Wednesday.
Have you been past the old theatre lately?
It was a spectacle that would have thrilled anyone’s inner three-year-old.
And, on Tuesday afternoon, some actual three and two-year-olds were lucky enough to be among those looking on as a pair of gigantic orange demolition excavators tore into the northern wall of Hamilton’s Founders Theatre in the manner of ravenous monsters.
