The Massey Birdwood Settlers Association Inc., is making the following submission to the Auckland Council “Have Your Say”.
As a resident and ratepayers organisation we are concerned about the impact of rates on residents, in Massey.
The Council flyer indicates that Auckland Council is thinking of raising rates by 3.2%. For the 12 months ended December 2015, the CPI increase was 0.01% or 1/10th of a percent.
The Association has heard that increases in rates are not related to the CPI. Then what are they related to and how does the Council work out the rates?
