Tell the Government to limit council rates hikes to three percent

 

While household across the country are being forced to tighten their belts, councils continue to spend unsustainably leading to eye-watering rates hikes. 

Local government can't be trusted to get spending under control, they must be forced into the same financial discipline as the rest of the country. If councils want to hike rates by more than three percent, they should be forced to put it to a referendum and make the case to ratepayers that there's no more waste that could be cut. 

Tell Christopher Luxon and Simeon Brown to impose a limit on council rate hikes.
