For God sake when will the Wellington City Council do what they were elected to do. Do we need new cycle ways - no, new road kerbing - no, no and no to the waste of tax payers money on things that don't need doing. I am so sick and tired of paying rates for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. The WCC need to get their act together. I know, people, this had been discussed before but REALLY seriously they need to get a grip and do something. Maybe people should stop paying their rates. Can you image. Their incompetence needs to stop
