Inaugural Conference of Ratepayers NZ Inc
Saturday 10 & Sunday 11 November 2018
Ocean Lodge, 20 Muritai Street, Tahunanui, Nelson
This conference is to bring ratepayers and residents groups together from around New Zealand to form one association. We’d like to invite you to join us!
Guest speakers include: Dr Catherine Strong speaking on ‘The effect of Council Codes of Conduct on freedom of speech’; Jarrod Coburn – on the purpose, intent and structure of residents’ groups in NZ; and Jordan Williams who is a Director and Co-Founder of the Taxpayers Union. There will be Q&A after each speaker.
All welcome
The aspirations and purpose of Ratepayers NZ means there will be one organisation to be the driver of local government reform and accountability. Rates need to be affordable and explainable to ratepayers; accurate, politically neutral and full information needs to be given to elected Councillors to base their decisions on; public consultation, submissions and engagement should be meaningful - there is a lot that could be improved.
There is no registration fee.
However please email for your registration form and feel free to contact us for any more information.

Calling all those in Wheelchairs
Hi, I'm Simon .... a 44 yr old wheelchair user who wants to meet others in a similar position as myself (particularly a woman). I've been a sole parent now for almost 18 years and my son has just left the nest, so I thought it was time to start on the next stage of my life. I have cerebral palsy that effects just my legs (kinda the reason I can't walk) sooooooo if any of you are interested in getting to know me, flick me a message. I enjoy spending time with my son when he comes to visit and my pets (1 cat and 2 birds), I also enjoy building computers as well as a bit of gaming/watching TV too. So if this sounds like something you'd be interested in, shoot me a message.
