Long Term Plan Community Workshop - 25 November
In planning the budget for the next three years (from 1 July 2024), Council wants to hear what you’d prioritise to save money and keep rates from skyrocketing.
We’re looking for 120 people across all demographics to help inform these decisions, with wider public consultation to follow in February 2024. To sign up to attend a workshop on Saturday 25 November, head to: survey.publicvoice.co.nz...
Council already has a $131m roading recovery programme ahead of it, and will continue to prioritise essential services like water and waste so we want to know, across other areas, what could we do with less of? And what can we not afford to cut?
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
53.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
27.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
18.5% ... It is complicated
