Poll: Do you think this was the right decision?
Hamilton City Council is defending a $60,000 spend on a flood of water management PR featuring a TV personality as residents face huge rates rises.

Do you think this was the right decision? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
