How should the Christchurch City Council spend your money?

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Want to tell the city council how to spend your money? Now you can.

If you have a view on tackling climate change, charging heavy water users or how rates should be spent, now is the time to let the council know.

For the next month the public can provide feedback on the council's proposed 10-year budget, known as the long-term plan.

The budget sets out a vision for how the council will spend money over the next decade, and is re-evaluated and ratified every three years.

The public can give their feedback through the council website, on the Have Your Say page, until April 18.

What suggestions would you make?
