But Councilor Guest did speak some sense (from the ODT):
He began voicing a long list of council departments and estimates receiving "phenomenal increases" - something that took several minutes and prompted Mayor Chin to interject. Cr Guest urged councillors to focus on those areas, saying the final rates increase could be reduced by as much as 3% if they did.It will be interesting to see if anything comes of this when the hearing resume on February 2.
Projected rates rises for the following years are 10.4%, 9.3% and 9.4%. These are driven by major spending on the Town Hall project, Sewerage Treatment and the Stadium. Unless some serious economies are made, Ratepayers are in for an unhappy time.

Hey there, I've set up a facebook group called "The DCC has lost the plot" in response to all the crazy decisions that have been made by the current DCC and to try and raise awareness to vote them out next local body election.
