It's now your turn..

Hi all. By now you would have received a letter from HCC showing your new rates rises should the budget go ahead and be accepted in June.

I have been opposed to this budget when I saw what was happening back in March 2017. I work for my people and my city, this budget does not.

I was the only elected member who voted against the consultation document. It doesn't tell you the whole picture and that's not OK with me. It paints a picture of doom and gloom that is simply not true. But now I ask you to please, please put in a public submission so YOU can tell Council what you think. Submissions can be done online or, you can simply send an email, you can even pick a paper copy up from any library. Don't sit back in silence, I haven't been silent, so use this opportunity. I know this is public office and public money, but you need to remind Council of that fact. Let your thoughts be known. Find me on Facebook for more info and daily updates on the proposed budget. Submissions are open till 30th April, and please pass this message on, it's critical Council hears from now😊

Shameful behaviour

The young guy and his smart mouth girlfriend carry on walking past the work and income running their mouths so proud of themselves.. what a generation. And it’s sad to say that it’s my generation down that majority have no flippin respect for anyone. No consideration for the kids looking on.. or the elderly people breaking into tears watching on. Poor lady I hope she’s ok. She decided to get in her car and go home instead of shopping. What kind of role models are our children and grandchildren gona have. Very sad
