Boycotting, what a bunch of wallies, hardly representing Residents and Ratepayers.
Hamilton Residents and Ratepayers Association Incorporated
Published by Mischele Rhodes · 22 hrs
PRESS RELEASE by our Association as follows:-
"Hamilton Residents & Ratepayers Association Incorporated
As a body the Hamilton Residents & Ratepayers Association Inc. (HRRA) objects to all six options proposed for rate rises that address the 10-Year Plan Review. HRRA instead hereby lodge a directive to Hamilton City Council to return to the ‘drawing board’ and try again. The commitment to the previously agreed 2015 plan of 3.8% should be honoured, being more consistent with New Zealand’s projected rate of inflation. In addition, the Council should become more disciplined and learn to live within its means rather than expecting to call upon the ratepayers to finance its excesses which includes the $22 million in interest on present council debt.
HRRA see the present Six Options offered from 9.5% to 16.5% unjustifiable and for this reason alone we have chosen to boycott the 2018 Consultation process."

Waikato District Council Waste Management and Minimisation Plan

Now is the chance to push for 1 'free' bag/week, additional bags would then require a sticker, saving a whole lot of hassle for nearly everyone. I have created a poll on the Ngaruawahia Noticeboard Facebook page. Currently 335 people have signalled that they prefer to have the first bag 'free'. 13 people liked the current sticker system. If you have a Facebook page for your location, perhaps you would like to create a poll for your neighbours and copy in your local Councillor. By the way, an additional 172 people would like to see wheelie bins supplied rather than using the black plastic bags.
