Poll: Do you think new funding and financing options will help with rates?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Senior Waikato mayors are welcoming a new national push by Local Government New Zealand to promote alternative funding and financing methods to ease rates pressure and develop key infrastructure.

LGNZ - which on Thursday was holding a national hui in Wellington - released a list of 25 funding and financing tools to help take direct pressure off ratepayers.
