city council
i find it interesting that the city council takes it upon themselves to up our rates whenever they feel the need to and yet we get nothing in return but we do lose a curtain amount of our services that we pay like rubbish removal, they wont take a curtain plastic (and yet auckland takes everything) and they refuse to pick up cardboard thats any bigger than a shoes box give or take and they have recently raised the prices at the dump.Why do we pay rates in this city ?

Poll: Have you ever had a Healthy Homes inspection done where you live?
Conflicting Healthy Homes inspection reports are raising concerns about the consistency of standards meant to ensure rental properties are safe and liveable.
In one recent case, a Cambridge rental property underwent two inspections within a week, with significantly different outcomes. The first, arranged by tenant Sara Lewis, identified multiple issues including mould, vermin, and ventilation concerns. A second inspection, arranged by property managers Harcourts, just six days later, found little to criticise.
