To Whom it my concern
Fees and Charges
Dog Registration Fee and Animal control Fees
With the increase in the dog registration fee going up there should be
a reduction for dog owners whose dog or dogs have lived passed there
natural life expectancy. My own Labrador has lived six years past his life
expectancy and is going blind and losing his hearing and has Arthritis .
The Animal control people do not and have not done there job properly
for years. So why is the council putting up these rates?
Rates Remissions
With this year rate rise of 15.4% and GST at 15% which has to be included
which this council has not mentioned at all.
This calculates with the 15.4% and 15% GST works out to 17.9% RISE
With this year rise an the last two years the rates will have risen 50% plus GST
at 15%.
With all these rate rises what has the council done with all this money?
With all the water rates collected over the past few years why hasn’t this
council been fixing the water pipes also why it takes months for the council
to fix a leak and then in a few weeks later go back and refix the leak again
and again and so on.
It would be better for the Mayor and some of the Councillors and some of the
High ranking Tie wearing works all resign form this council and certain workers
need to go, and some of them know who I mean.
